MAKING THE SHIFT outlines the personal shifts that are required to first lead our own lives. It then busts some of the myths about leadership, by describing the leadershifts that are essential for being a great leader. In the final section, the process for Authentic Student Leadership Development is shared that can be tailored and used in every school.
