Drawing on extensive research and their experience of more than 100 partnerships with educational leaders across early childhood, school, and tertiary settings, Jefferson and Anderson present a praxis driven exploration of transformational leadership. This book delves into how educators can move beyond conventional approaches to foster sustainable and wise change, rejecting the allure of quick fixes for deeper, more meaningful shifts. It explains how creativity, critical reflection, communication, and collaboration (the 4Cs) power transformation, and how values and context serve as essential structural pillars providing ethical direction and ensuring leadership is responsive to each school's unique environment. The book directly addresses the crucial question: "how can leaders become transformative leaders?" It illuminates how the 4Cs foster both courageous individual leadership leadership-as-practice. Readers are provided with a map for developing transformative leadership communities through unique frameworks, practices and calls to action. By exploring elements like learning, values, and inquiry, this book offers not only the 'why' but, crucially, the 'how' to lead profound, joyful, and motivational transformation in schools.
