ETHICAL LEADERSHIP In Ethical Leadership, Robert Starratt--one of the leading thinkers on the topic of ethics and education--shows educational leaders how to move beyond mere technical efficiency in the delivery and performance of learning. Starratt explains that educational leadership requires a moral commitment to high quality learning for all students--a commitment based on three essential virtues: proactive responsibility; personal and professional authenticity; and an affirming, critical, and enabling presence to the workers and the work involved in teaching and learning. He clarifies how essential these virtues are for leadership in the pressure-cooker of high-stakes schooling. He provides a vivid illustration in the story of a principal who struggles to do the right thing for his students and teachers, as they are pressured--and often punished--by state mandated tests. Starratt concludes by offering practical suggestions for aspiring and working leaders. Ethical Leadership is part of the Jossey-Bass Leadership Library in Education. > --ERIC BREDO, professor and coordinator, Social Foundations Program, Department of Leadership, Foundations and Policy, University of Virginia > --PATRICK DUIGNAN, foundation chair in education leadership, director, Research Center in Educational Leadership, Australian Catholic University
