About This Title
"The authors' masterful developmental process leads you to a place of social responsibility, which is so critical for the mosaic that defines education today. From parents to superintendents, everyone connected to schools needs to take this journey."
—Rosemary Papa, Del and Jewell Lewis Chair of Learner-Centered Leadership
Northern Arizona University
"Provides an opportunity for individual reflection as opposed to a more social network of exploration. The idea of a cultural autobiography is compelling and necessary for people to truly extend their journey of understanding themselves and others."
—Denise Seguine, Chief Academic Officer
Wichita Public Schools, KS
Gain the personal insight you need to promote equity in your school!
With schools becoming increasingly diverse, educational leaders are finding that cultural proficiency—the ability to understand and respect students’ cultural dignity—is a crucial component of developing high-performing schools.
Culturally Proficient Leadership provides a step-by-step approach for creating a cultural autobiography to help educators reflect on their underlying beliefs, assumptions, and backgrounds. Written by highly respected experts in education and diversity, this interactive resource:
- Addresses a broad range of differences relevant to today's schools, including race, ethnicity, national origin, language, gender, social class, sexual orientation, faith, and ability
- Features compelling first-person narratives from the authors' own cross-cultural journeys
- Includes reflective questions and prompts to guide readers in examining how their cultural experiences influence their leadership practice
By embarking on a journey of self-discovery, leaders at all levels can develop essential skills for communicating and collaborating across cultures.
