Reviews / Votes
'Transformative Leadership in Action offers a deeply reflective and reflexive account of the bravery and vulnerability necessary for substantive social change, meaningful personal transition, and groundbreaking policy initiatives in an increasingly uncertain world. Through brief research accounts, personal stories, and professional cases, the contributing scholars deftly capture the compassion and determination needed to continually refine one's allyship prowess. The ideas, tactics, and strategies collected here should be considered required reading for all aspiring allies, accomplices, change agents, advocates, and activists.' -- Dr. Vivechkanand S. Chunoo, Assistant Professor of Agricultural Leadership, Education & Communications, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and co-editor of Changing the Narrative: Socially Just Leadership Education 'An array of turbulence in the twenty-first century dictates that strong, confident voices rise up and address the matters of the day - dominance, privilege, social justice, activism, allyship - and, without wavering, advocate for social change. The editors and authors in this brilliant collection, masterfully do just that. This is a must have, must read for scholars, practitioners, students, humanitarians, and others whose goal it is to protect our collective humanity by putting transformative leadership into action.' -- Donnette J. Noble, Ph.D., Voss Distinguished Professor of Leadership Studies/Director of Civic Learning and Engagement/Associate Professor of Leadership Studies - Fort Hays State University 'This timely book goes beyond transformational leadership as a conceptual framework to transformative leadership as a call to action that involves taking steps to elevate the human condition toward greater equity and justice. Well-documented, informative, personal, inclusive, and provocative, the authors offer a book aimed at helping students heed a call to action to make the world a better place.' -- Barry Z Posner, Michael J. Accolti, S.J. Chair, Professor of Leadership, Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara University, and Co-Author, The Leadership Challenge 'This is an incredible resource for leaders and leadership educators in all contexts looking to engaging in complex conversations about transformative change.' -- Kathy L. Guthrie, Associate Professor and Director of Leadership Learning Research Center, Florida State University, and co-editor of Changing the Narrative: Socially Just Leadership Education 'For those from privileged background who want to be authentic allies to liberation movements, Transformative Leadership in Action provide practical guidelines and examples of authentic allyship. This book adds to our understanding of social change leadership in both the university and the wider community.' -- Drick Boyd, Professor Emeritus, Urban Studies, Eastern University 'Now more than ever transformative leadership is needed! Rooted in theory and practice, this book is an excellent guide for developing the character and capabilities of transformative leaders. Furthermore, it can serve as an excellent reference for gaining wisdom and strategies of transformative leadership to make a positive difference in the world.As a leadership educator, associate professor, and a program head for Royal Roads University's Master's of Arts in Leadership program, one of Canada's largest graduate programs promoting leadership development, I keep this book handy on my shelf as guide and reference when not lending it to colleagues and students!' -- Kathy Bishop, PhD, Associate Professor, Royal Roads University 'Transformative Leadership in Action is a book of uncommon courage, depth, and gravity. In the wake of the unfulfilled promises of democratic nations, organizations, and groups of all forms, here we find an antidote, a curative effect helping us become more whole and more capable of answering the most difficult responsibilities of the present day. The leadership and practice involved in liberatory and transformative life comes to the fore, reshaping that which has failed to enliven the best in the human community, Transformative Leadership in Action reaches into the heart of humanity not only to strengthen our collective heart, but to lead us forward and upward into a new dawn in which we more closely embody the prophetic essence Martin Luther King Jr. spoke so deeply of: that the content of our character would make us capable of transcending the chaos of the times.' -- Shann Ray Ferch, PhD, Gonzaga University, USA
