Produktbeschreibung

The Compassionate Leader offers an honest and refreshing guide to leading schools with purpose and heart. Drawing from the author's personal experiences as a school leader, interviews with head teachers and the latest research, this inspiring book demonstrates that compassionate leadership is not a soft alternative to strong leadership - but the cornerstone of strong leadership itself.

The book explores the key skills of 'compassionate leadership' and how they can be used in a school context to get the best out of yourself, your staff and your pupils. Covering values and ethos, coaching and professional development, well-being strategies and much more, the chapters reveal how you can create cultures of trust, inclusion and psychological safety, where everyone from support staff to families feel seen, heard and valued.

Packed with actionable strategies and reflective insights, this is essential reading for all current and aspiring school leaders wanting to create a healthy and authentic culture where the whole school community can thrive.
