Download or read book Meaningful Leadership written by Christina DeMara and published by DeMara-Kirby & Associates, LLC.. This book was released on with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you ever wonder how to be a Christian leader in a world that doesn't’ always recognize faith? Do you know the difference between leaders and Christian leaders? Did you know that your faith can help you build indestructible relationships? Author, Christina DeMara holds four college degrees and is an educational and business leader. After years of developing educational and business leaders, Christina set forth on a leadership journey to study her two passions, Christianity and leadership. Along the way her curiosity grew, questioning "What is the difference between leaders and Christian leaders?” When we think about leadership, we often think about positional power and the big paycheck. We don’t see goodness or faith. Over a six-year period, Christina studied leadership theory, analyzed her professional experiences, and reviewed scholarly research. Christina DeMara formed two true consensuses. First, she asserts Christian leaders possess a deeper mindfulness of intentionality, like God. Second, Christian leaders possess a deeper mindfulness of approaching tasks with their faith in mind. With these foundational truths, Meaningful Leaders can pave the way to applying intentional leadership principles that are beneficial to the organization and the team. Meaningful Leadership will take you from "what does research say" to "what does the Bible say.”When our faith grows, so does everything around us. This book will teach you how to lead from a heart of faith. Whether you lead a corporation, restaurant, Etsy store, or a home, this book is for anyone who wants to lead with their eyes on God and build indestructible relationships. This new book includes: Thought Provoking Meaningful Leadership Meaningful Leadership Considerations Meaningful Leadership Inventory The Meaningful Leadership Grid for Self-Growth and Self-Accountability A Scholarly Bibliography What are people saying about Meaningful Leadership?

Book excerpt: Research has consistently found that effective administrative practices are crucial for ensuring beneficial program outcomes for children and families. The Program Administration Scale (PAS) is designed to reliably measure and improve the leadership and management practices of center-based programs—the only instrument of its kind to focus exclusively on organization-wide administrative issues. Using a 7-point rating scale (inadequate to excellent), this easy-to-use instrument assesses 25 items grouped into 10 categories: human resources development, personnel cost and allocation, center operations, child assessment, fiscal management, program planning and evaluation, family partnerships, marketing and public relations, technology, and staff qualifications. This new second edition of the PAS includes minor refinements to support the reliable use of the instrument and to reflect current best practices in early childhood administration. The Notes and Guiding Questions for the PAS items are expanded to increase understanding and facilitate greater consistency in scoring. Emphasis is placed on administrative practices that support family partnership, inclusion, cultural sensitivity, and linguistic diversity. Routines that demonstrate distributed leadership are measured. The focus in technology is on practices that promote effective communication, collaboration, and continuous learning.

Download or read book Professional and Ethical Consideration for Early Childhood Leaders written by Cunningham, Denise D. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2020-06-19 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early childhood educators are keenly aware of the importance of a child’s transition to “real school.” This transition is occurring earlier in a child’s life now that school districts nationwide are moving to pre-kindergarten experiences for 3- and 4-year olds. Annually, more than one million children attend public school pre-k programs overseen by elementary school principals who, although veteran educational leaders, were not trained to oversee these programs. Although pre-k classrooms are rapidly growing and deserve special attention, school leaders must be reminded that early childhood means more than pre-kindergarten; it extends through third grade. School leadership needs to understand the principles of early childhood education to effectively support all children age three to grade three. Professional and Ethical Consideration for Early Childhood Leaders is a collection of innovative research that crafts an overall understanding of the importance of early childhood leadership in today’s schools. The book employs strategies to improve support for children in early childhood years, examines the different roles of early childhood leadership, analyzes best practices for implementation in early childhood contexts, and explores improvements for leadership preparation for schools with pre-k through third-grade children. While highlighting a wide range of topics including advocacy, cultural responses, and professional development, this publication is ideally designed for educators, administrators, principals, early childhood development teachers, daycare instructors, curriculum developers, advocates, researchers, academicians, and students.

Download or read book Professionalism in Early Childhood Education and Care written by Carmen Dalli and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The professionalism of the early childhood sector has gained prominence on the policy agendas of many countries. National pedagogical frameworks or curricula and an upsurge of pathways to gaining or upgrading qualifications has led to a pervasive terminology of professionalism. Yet, despite the pervasiveness of this terminology, the question of what professionalism means in early years contexts remains open to debate. This book draws together the work of an international group of scholars who have engaged with this question. They ask: How can professionalism be conceptualised in early childhood settings? How might one act professionally in increasingly diverse and changing social and cultural contexts? Do we have a common ground of understanding about these terms? Are there key concepts that can be agreed upon? Drawing on research and experience across a wide range of national contexts, this book seeks an understanding of early childhood professionalism in local contexts that might throw light on the global implications of this term. This book was published as a special issue in the European Early Childhood Education Research Journal.

This book recognises diverse manifestations of special educational needs, from communication difficulties and delays in learning, to social and physical disabilities, and considers the ways in which these needs might be embraced within inclusive mainstream settings. Key to this is robust and purposeful leadership that removes barriers to learning, changes existing attitudes and values, motivates staff and foregrounds holistic learning opportunities and experiences. Chapters draw on theoretical models, reflect on international and national policies, and consider topics including: the image of the child physical, aesthetic and temporal aspects of the learning environment relational pedagogy long-, medium- and short-term planning the role of assessment collaborative working with parents, families and other professionals. In-depth descriptions of behaviours and leadership strategies, practice scenarios and activities support the reader’s understanding.
