Educational Leadership in Times of Crisis: Insights from Great Figures in History

Oplatka, Izhar

This book aims to fill the gap in our knowledge about crisis management in schools, its particular characteristics, and strategies from a historical point of view. It combines knowledge about educational leadership with biographical narratives of great leaders in history who have faced a tremendous crisis successfully and from whom we can learn a lot about effective coping strategies in times of crisis. The leaders in the book represent different nations and organizations, facing political, military, economic or social crises. The book provides a deeper knowledge necessary for preparing for a possible crisis and for managing it in successful ways if it comes and adds novel insights into the field of educational administration and leadership in the twenty-first century.
