Synopsis

Experts Academy Press is proud to present the first and only leadership book on the market that is (1) intended for students, (2) written from both theoretical and popular viewpoints, and (3) structured with a real-world, service-oriented framework that students can instantly use to make a difference in their classrooms, communities, and early careers. Leadership is conceptualized from the principles that it is a collective and participative process, different from management, and firmly rooted in service. The book's framework--Envision, Enlist, Embody, Empower, Evaluate, and Encourage--reflects six key leadership practices students must learn in order to lead with competence and confidence. The Student Leadership Guide has been praised by educators and students alike for its theory-backed content and its practical, inspiring call to action and service.

About this title

Review:

""Too often teachers of leadership make the concept too idealistic, remote and inaccessible. Burchard has done something very special with The Student Leadership Guide. He has made leadership understandable, accessible, and thoroughly desirable. The six ""Es"" alone are worth the price of admission. It should be required reading for all students. -- Bill Treasurer ""Executive leadership coach and author, Right Risk""
