Synopsis

When is leadership not relational? When is education not relational? When is life not relational? Relationships always matter to our living, educating and leading. Relational Leadership in Education considers this 'Relational Leadership' within the context of education, critiquing the current ideological 'context' and contemporary understandings of its influence. Employing a phenomenological approach, this book explores the relational nature of education, Relational Leadership, and the organizational culture to provide a more sophisticated exploration of practice-based wisdom. It offers an extensive range of activities for further thinking on the experiential nature of Relational Leadership, grouped around a number of themes: Relational Leadership and sensibilities; organizational culture; professional development; curriculum, pedagogy and assessment; and the reconstruction of a postgraduate Educational Leadership and Management programme for experienced, emergent and aspiring leaders.

'Relational Leadership' is not about describing yet another style of leadership but rather about a relational way of being in leadership that utilizes refined relational sensibilities. 'Relational Leadership' is also a reminder of what is critical in a leader's practice - leadership is always relational, and relationships are the essence of leadership.
