The Unexpected Leader : Exploring the real nature of values, authenticity and moral purpose in education Paperback / softback
by Iesha Small
Edited by Ian Gilbert
Paperback / softback
Description
The Unexpected Leader is a book for school leaders who want to make a difference but feel they don't fit in to what is expected. If you are a `hero head' or a Clint Eastwood type then choose another book.
This isn't for you. This is a book about people. A book that humanises school leaders and tells their stories.
A book where school leaders tell the truth about themselves and their journeys to leadership.
It's a book of virtual mentors and peers for anybody in or aspiring to school leadership - especially those who have doubted themselves and wondered how they could square effective leadership with being their authentic selves. Iesha Small wrote The Unexpected Leader as a school leader who looked around and didn't see many role models who shared her experiences and who were honest about being things that others didn't expect in a leadership package - introverted, unassuming, honest about mental ill health.
In this book she has gathered 12 school leaders and told their stories alongside her own - in words and photographs - to draw out the key learning points that will benefit many others who are on a similar journey.
