Rezensionen

"In this book, Ma and Shouse open new windows into the study of all leadership, but particularly educational leadership. Applying innovative and modern approaches to old problems, they question basic assumptions and leave the reader with entirely new insights. Masterfully researched, probing, compelling, this book combines the very best of what these accomplished "scholar practitioners" have to offer - a complex and unique understanding of different cultural approaches to leadership combined with a rich knowledge of extant research and a love of cinema. Highly sophisticated, yet easy to read and intensely engaging, this book is indispensable for all those who care about leadership. Its messages are not easily forgotten."
