International Perspectives on Ethical Educational Leadership - Brandy Yee - Bog

This book considers ethical educational leadership dilemmas that impact the workplace cultures influencing school districts' success. As school systems become increasingly demographically, racially, and culturally diverse, the need intensifies for educational leaders to lead their school communities in an ethical manner, developing workplace cultures characterized by psychological and emotional safety. Based on research and extensive experience working with school districts in Canada, Germany, Finland, and the United States, Yee and Yee deliver vignettes from various school contexts illustrating ethical leadership dilemmas and leader responses indicative of both toxic and healthy workplace cultures. Finally, the authors present key lessons learned from healthy educational workplaces, illustrating next steps and a call to action for implementing and maintaining ethical school district leadership practices.
