The changing demographics of students and educators in schools today suggest that much of what we do as educational leaders revolves around the complex issues related to our various cultural understandings. In this book the authors discuss the relationship between culture and conflict and provide a continuum to better understand the basis for much cultural conflict. Authors emphasize a systematic framework that can be used to guide the practitioner in resolving conflicts rooted in cultural issues – from less difficult issues such as the cultural conflicts that occur on a campus between academic cultures and athletic cultures, to the more complicated and delicate issues rooted in racial or sexual identity issues.
Sandra Harris has authored 21 books and over 150 journal articles on educational leadership. Her areas of interest include personal cultural transformation and the role of inquiry in changing leadership understandings and practice.
Steve Jenkins is the chairman of the Department of Educational Leadership at Lamar University. He has more than 35 years experience, expertise and publishing as a leader at the campus, district, and university level.
