There is a form of spirituality inherent in leading school districts and schools. That spirituality is embedded in human engagement and in the mission of formal education, which is to help students develop their potentiality to the fullest extent possible. Within this process of leading, superintendents, principals, and other administrators encounter this same transforming opportunity. This book explores the spiritual basis of educational leadership. Organized in three parts, the author answers the following questions:



- What does it mean to be a spiritual education leader?


- How should spiritual education leaders engage others?


- How should spiritual educational leaders organize their schools and school districts?





The author offers a framework for readers to analyze their own leadership styles through reflective practice and provides different lenses through which to observe, articulate, andaimprove the values-based underpinnings of their individual work.
