Description: This book offers multiple perspectives on educational leadership from the viewpoint of scholars, policymakers and practitioners. It considers leadership in context and highlights the importance of cultural influences in shaping and forming leadership practices.

The book primarily concerns itself with ‘leading futures’ and the challenges faced by leading schools and school systems in an era of fast-paced technological change. It looks at leadership practices across four different levels (system, professional, leader, and learner) and explores the connections therein. The text argues that these four levels are often viewed and described independently but in reality they are inherently interconnected and integrally related.

In short, this book takes a multilevel, multicultural, and multicontextual look at contemporary educational–leadership practice. Through this comparative lens, it presents new ideas, knowledge, and insights that would be relevant and ultimately useful to educational leaders around the globe.
