Selected authors will receive more information about the structural requirements and pedagogical features we agreed upon with the publisher, as well as the chapter length.
By publishing this book, we aim to provide several unique features, among which a geographically dispersed, yet spiritually aligned team of authors, and a focus on soft and hard skills in regards to leadership, captured in a total of 26 chapters.
Through explanations and examples from contemporary and historical leaders, but also "everyday" leaders, we will collectively invite the reader to consider each leadership quality we present, and engage in self-reflection regarding the quality discussed.
The deadline for first drafts of chapters will be on June 1, 2015 (some flexibility possible herein).
We look forward to your response.
Sincerely,
Joan Marques, PhD, EdD, and Satinder Dhiman, PhD, EdD, Editors
