Pellicer, Dean, College of Education and Organizational Leadership, University of La Verne Many leaders have to deal with groups that are full of distrust, suspicion, and ill feeling.

Rather than rely on coercive power to solve problems, John Glaser advocates a leadership approach based on the principles of coherence.

Based on his many years of experience as a superintendent and consultant in conflict resolution and employment negotiations, the author has found a more successful and effective means of solving problems through the creation of alignment and a sense of shared leadership.

Containing practitioner-friendly resources, including charts, diagrams, sidebars, tools, strategies and real-life examples, this easy-to-use resource offers practical guidance to leaders experiencing conflict in their organizations.

It will also help those leaders who want to create a community aligned around a common vision. Glaser outlines the steps for team-building and collaboration as:- Aligning the team - Focusing on the vision - Searching for solutions - Reaching agreements This book is intended for leaders in education, non-profit organizations, public administration and healthcare.
