Educational administrators, teachers, and those training them have always faced a seemingly simple but critical question: What does it take to be a successful leader? This question has become more pressing as schools across Canada and the world continue to transform through social justice advocacy and anti-colonial and anti-oppressive perspectives. Transformative Change through Educational Leadership addresses these vital issues by gathering rich examples of leadership in action in the form of 18 chapters grounded in the personal stories of diverse—including Indigenous, Black, Brown, and queer—educators. Together, they offer practical strategies for building relationships; centring student needs; connecting with community, parents, and caregivers; supporting wellness and well-being; and making space for all who wish to lead. Featuring learning outcomes, discussion questions, and timely research, this pertinent text will appeal to anyone looking to reflect on and enhance their own educational leadership journey.
