Recenzii

This excellent book focuses on how leaders can leverage the power of social networks to shape educational change. School leadership is redefined as the ability to spark and direct fluid learning environments through the interaction of relationships and resources. The Relational Leader offers a new, dynamic vision of leadership in education.
In bringing together an array of international perspectives and lenses focusing on different levels of social networking and their implications, Yi-Hwa Liou and Alan Daly have created a compelling case for network literacy and associated intentional leadership action. Frequently drawing on fresh insights from doctoral research, the book contains valuable messages for school and system leaders, researchers, policy makers and educational partners.
This edited volume highlights leadership from a social and relational perspective across different contexts and settings, with a particular focus on the role of social networks in system change, involving a wide range of stakeholder groups.
This high quality collection edited by Liou and Daly fills a significant gap in the contemporary educational leadership literature. In a world where we have been rocked by a pandemic and the existential challenge of climate change, not to mention multiple regional crises and widespread fiscal uncertainty, all of which look certain to entrench and exacerbate educational and social inequities. Never than now have we needed to rethink what is important to us or how we need do things as a matter of such urgency. This will require leadership that is fit for the future rather than replicates the failures of the past.The empirical research reported here challenges traditional orthodoxies and serves as a springboard to reframing understandings of leadership and leadership practice. The authors within this collection take up the challenge of, and successfully reposition the leadership debate into new territory which gives us all hope for the future.
