Leadership Case Studies in Education

Fourth Edition


April 2025 | SAGE Publications, Inc
Leadership Case Studies in Education 4th Edition by Peter G. Northouse and Marie Lee applies leadership theories in educational settings. Designed to be used alongside Leadership: Theory and Practice 10th Edition, this casebook provides relevant, substantive, and contemporary case studies on leadership issues in Higher Education and K-12 Education. Each of the 32 case studies include critical thinking questions that encourage students to apply leadership theory and concepts to real-life situations. Engaging, practical, and relevant, Leadership Case Studies in Education is the perfect companion for educational leadership courses. New cases explore social identity leadership and team leadership theories, with examples including the challenges of teaching virtually during the COVID-19 pandemic, the formation of a union of college adjunct professors, and a high school's challenge in changing their offensive school mascot symbol.
