Beschreibung
A spiritually grounded source of inspiration and answers for education leaders in troubling times Public confidence in schools is waning, and there remains an unprecedented teacher shortage in the United States. Leading with Heart and Soul: 30 Inspiring Lessons of Faith, Learning, and Leadership for Educators shows leaders how to use spiritual principles to care for teachers, students, and other stakeholders despite these obstacles. Principals, superintendents, and others will gain motivation from the stories and strategies inside. Drawing on spiritual principles and Dr. Irvin Scott's experience as a classroom, school, district, and non-profit leader, this book will reinvigorate you and your team as you try to answer your most pressing questions about the future of education, including: * How do we empower innovative, servant-hearted educational leaders to meet the needs of students? * How do we inspire whole communities to support the learning journeys of their youth? * How do we engage the entire educational ecosystem--including nonprofits and other organizations--to uplift equitable opportunities to learning and ensure that every student has the resources needed to thrive? This is not a time for leaders to turn away from our children, their caregivers, and the educators who teach and nurture them. Instead, it is a time to lift them up and celebrate the work they do while navigating our own administrative mandates and challenges. Leading with Heart and Soul speaks directly to the individuals in a position to achieve that goal. It is perfect for book clubs; personal study; and within public, Christian private, and faith-based charter schools.

"Dr. Scott inspires those around him through his profound impact as a leader and educator. His ability to brilliantly intersect life, faith, education and leadership is remarkable."
"In a succession of stirring stories in Leading with Heart and Soul, Dr. Scott illustrates thirty ways that, in and out of the classrooms of under-resourced urban districts, its teachers and administrators must approach their work as a mission that demands expertise, passion, empathy and existential well-being to thrive and excel. Indeed, the thirty lessons are universally applicable for educators' use in all districts and educational settings."
"Dr. Scott delivers a riveting, nuanced, and heartfelt amalgamation of moral and impactful superintendence. A true gem for all parents and leaders."
"Irvin Scott is the epitome of a servant leader - insightful, compassionate, empowering, visionary. He leads with intellectual humility, a deep abiding faith, and a fiery passion for meeting the needs of young people and those charged with their education and care. In Leading with Heart and Soul, Irvin shares his leadership journey, revealing the actions of impactful leaders and inspiring us to cultivate our calling."
"Having worked alongside Irvin, I can attest to his deep and abiding commitment to transforming the lives of students, educators, and communities. He's remained true to that commitment in multiple parts of the education sector. Through story and with powerful and accessible prose, this book allows readers behind the curtain of his personal and professional life to better understand how educators bring their whole selves to building America's future through its children."
"Scott's Leading with Heart and Soul is, without question, a gift of knowledge. Brilliantly weaving together both the Sacred and the secular, Scott's text is a must-read for aspiring and current educational leaders."
