{"product_id":"taoist-lessons-for-educational-leaders-daniel-heller-9781610485197","title":"Taoist Lessons for Educational Leaders: Gentle Pathways to Resolving Conflicts","description":"This book explores ways in which educational leaders can apply the wisdom of the Tao in their day-to-day work in schools. It offers an alternative to the standard ways of western thinking to give the leader more possibilities when confronting a situation. We tend to value immediate and decisive action, winning, directing, and getting one's way. Taoist Lessons for Educational Leaders offers another way of approaching the workplace. We can also value waiting and reflection before acting, seeing all participants as winners or at least no one as a loser, following as a form of leadership, and giving away some victories, as beneficial to the governance of a school. There is more than one way to \"win\" and more than one way assert one's authority, as illustrated by this book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel Heller\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 161048519X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781610485197\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e R \u0026amp; L Education\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/17\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.99h x 5.96w x 0.27d","brand":"Daniel Heller","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48459569135871,"sku":"9781610485197","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ad6dcef3-7417-45f6-99b5-ac25725bb233.jpg?v=1777410514","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/taoist-lessons-for-educational-leaders-daniel-heller-9781610485197","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
