'Teaching Leadership is a wonderful guide to becoming a wise and effective teacher and facilitator of leadership development. This important book is based in the foundations of the field of leadership and encompasses the latest research, theory, and practices. A key feature of the book is its holistic approach with the recurrent theme of integrating heart, head, and hands as part of a life-long journey. Teaching Leadership embraces the fact that leadership contexts are becoming more relational and collaborative and thus require the integration of diverse disciplines and worldviews.' - Charles J. Palus, Center for Creative Leadership, USA
'This book challenges both novice and seasoned educators to explore the interdependencies between their own leadership learning and that of their students. In a brilliant move, Crosby calls attention to an unspoken truth: teaching leadership demands soul searching about one's own leadership work. Each chapter offers wisdom and practical advice to support this transformative process, as Crosby artfully weaves insights from conversations with other educators and reflections from her experience. Teaching Leadership: An Integrated Approach is memorable in another important way- it is scholarly grounded, and yet quite inspirational and profound.' - Sonia M. Ospina, New York University, USA
'Barbara Crosby explains and exemplifies the passion, smarts, and action (heart, head, and hands) of leadership and teaching for it, weaving these three strands into each section of her book. Throughout, she deftly incorporates narratives of 20 participants to offer us their personal and formative sides and an account of their professional practice and reflection. In addition, she integrates recent scholarship about leadership with her central insights into teaching for leadership. The book will serve as a wonderful introduction to those entering the field of teaching leadership, a metric for those who have been at it for a while, and a capstone for those finishing a program in leadership.' - Richard A. Couto, Union Institute and University, USA
