Rezensionen
"Leadership for Educational Psychologists fills a vital role for the profession. The book provides a comprehensive theoretical as well as practical foundation to leadership, by practitioners who write from direct, valuable experience. The chapters on ethics, working in different teams and dealing with tricky situations, selling services and managing well- being, cover key current issues, and whether one agrees with all the ideas that are described or not, the book raises the right questions. All credit to the authors for producing a much needed book, of value to principals, would-be leaders, and all those engaged in the serious study and practice of educational psychology leadership."
"This is an overdue text on the nature of leadership within Educational Psychology Services and it provides, with its sections on 'Reflections' and 'Practical themes', a wealth of ideas and resources which should prove invaluable to current and future leaders within EP Services. The range of resources offers leaders ways of conceptualising current concerns they may face in their role, including models, checklists and process frameworks. The variety of topics is vast but I welcome particularly the chapter considering Women in Leadership and also the chapter that discusses dealing with tricky work-based situations. Both these subjects are not particular to EP Services and therefore the book has the potential to inform a much wider audience. I would recommend this book to all who are interested in the development of Educational Psychology Services."
