Caring Enough to Lead Résumé

Caring Enough to Lead: How Reflective Practice Leads to Moral Leadership Leonard O. Pellicer

Leonard Pellicer is more believable than many authors because he practices what he preaches. This book represents a gift from someone who shows us that leading and caring go hand in hand. I have skimmed through all too many books on leadership. Most don't speak to me. This one got my attention. Through a rich collection of anecdotes and stories, rather than pronouncements and recipes, I know it will grab yours.
-From the Foreword by Terrence E. Deal

Pellicer reminds educators why we entered the education field in the first place. He has hit the proverbial nail on its head, and I highly encourage all graduate schools of education and all teacher leaders to make this book required reading!
-Candace Bower, Instructor
New York State Teacher Center Leadership Academy

This book is addictive. It has a very personal feel to it, as if the author is talking to the reader.
-Kathe Stanley, Art Teacher
Richmond Drive Elementary School, Rock Hill, SC

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. The author's personal stories were realistic, which made his points easy to envision. I am thankful for the privilege of adding this to my library.
-Douglas Rinaca, Sixth-Grade Teacher
Chester Middle School, Gastonia, NC
