Leadership and Futuring
Making Visions Happen

Second Edition

Foreword by Edward Cornish, Founder and Former President, The World Future Society



August 2006 | 136 pages | Corwin
Well-educated, charismatic leaders who can improve systems to enrich the lives of others are needed today more than ever. In this updated edition, John Hoyle identifies vision, motivation, flexibility, and openness to invention and opportunity as key characteristics of effective leaders, and challenges school administrators to think outside the box-to explore the vital links between effective leadership and visioning for the future.

Illustrating new and vivid team building exercises, this excellent resource guides educators striving to lead, inspire, and motivate students and team members toward positive personal visions and a successful life and career.

The book also:

o Explains the relationship between leadership and futuring

o Describes seven visionary leaders

o Links motivation research to contemporary organizations

o Offers inspirational stories about successful visionaries

o Provides step-by-step futuring techniques for workshops

o Suggests how leaders create, communicate, and put forth a service vision

Leadership and Futuring is about dynamic change based on visionary leadership not just for today, but for the future - in education, business, government and any field.
