In a revised and expanded edition of Choosing Leadership, Dr. Linda Ginzel tells us that “leadership is a choice.” To help readers make more informed choices on their leadership journeys, she shares two important resources: a workbook with activities to develop leadership skills through personal reflection and a series of modules designed for group leadership development. While Ginzel presents her definition of leadership early on, she guides readers in developing their own leadership point of view based on personal experiences. Ginzel tells us that “Self-understanding is a key skill for choosing leadership – for deciding when to manage and when to lead.” Readers can then take their work a step further in the group leadership modules, engaging in deep reflection while teaching or learning with others. The book serves as a companion along the way and into the future, reminding readers of their "why" and encouraging their leadership point of view to develop as they do. For educators looking to refine their leadership skills, grow the leadership capacity of their team, or develop programming for students, Choosing Leadership, Revised and Expanded is a must-have resource.
