This book brings together a remarkable cadre of international authors, who take up critical tensions in our educational leadership settings, disrupting binaries and challenging historical conceptualizations of leadership. Grappling with these tensions leads to intersectional understandings, implications for transforming the ways that we conceptualize gender and leadership, and new pathways that could help us disrupt and reimagine leadership for a more just world. Essential reading for anyone committed to leadership for justice and equity.
