Introduces readers to process-based understandings of leadership, providing language and tools for engaging in the leadership process for all involved. Based on their experiences as leadership educators, the authors offer grounding concepts of leadership and examples illustrating the complexity of culturally relevant leadership learning.

Filled with 60 learning activities for diverse contributors, this book offers a hands-on resource for leadership educators to use when facilitating leadership learning opportunities. Each learning activity includes learning outcomes, activity instructions, facilitation notes, and additional resources.

Provides resources for leadership educators. The first section sets the stage for leadership education and the professional work of leadership educators. The second introduces a leadership learning framework, provides examples of strong leadership programs, and describes the transformative practice of leadership education. The third section offers specific instructional and assessment strategies.

Links issues of social justice, equity, and equality, to leadership knowledge, skills, and values, with the intent of offering theoretical, practical, and policy recommendations to improve the work of educators charged with preparing undergraduates for the complexities of leadership in all its forms.

A goal of higher education is to develop students into leaders capable of guiding modern society. Too often, though, the leadership development curricula does not address the diversity of student populations, a critical failing if the new leaders are to respond comprehensively to societal issues.
