About this book
Become a stronger, more effective teacher and learn how leadership skills impact all areas of early childhood care and education
Working with children requires you to be an adaptable leader and teacher, no matter the setting. Learning to Lead helps early childhood professionals at any level cultivate their leadership potential and skills with an introduction to leadership theory and practice, including definitions of the functions and styles of leadership and examinations of the roles of empowerment, followership, and advocacy in the leadership process.
Use your knowledge of child development to transfer your natural skills to a range of leadership situations. Each chapter is built around a combination of theories, examples, and reflection questions, concluding with a vignette and references for further study.

- Updated and expanded material on working with children in a culturally diverse community while addressing the racial and social injustice and inequity in society
- Updated and expanded material on how bias, prejudice, discrimination, oppression, and inequity intersect with cultural differences and diversity
- Updated resources for further reading
