Inspire, Communicate, Motivate

The role of the educational leader

Through underpinning research, practical examples and links to the NQF, Inspire, Communicate, Motivate aims to answer questions educators may ask, such as: what should their role look like; what are their responsibilities; how do they know if they are getting it right; and how do they evidence what they are doing to an assessor or to management? It is not always easy to cater to the varying needs, learning styles and responsibilities of all members of the team, yet this is essential to the role of the educational leader. This book charts a path to achieve these goals.
