Summary "Soft leadership begins with an introspective inquiry into leadership and the obligation leaders have to people, purpose, and relationships. Through the use of poetry and philosophical principles, Soft Leadership for Hard Times provides practitioners with a clear understanding of relationships that touch people and connect them to their calling and purpose. It addresses the need for leadership that does not take a reengineering and metrical approach to creating exciting places for teachers and students. This book will be of interest to superintendents, principals, and students of leadership."--Jacket.
