God ledelse er relevant for ledere, der ønsker at udvikle, undersøge og understøtte ledelse. Som leder må man forholde sig til, hvad der er god ledelse i den kontekst, hvor man er leder. Alle organisationer og virksomheder, både i den private og offentlige sektor, efterspørger god ledelse. God ledelse er den første danske antologi om god ledelse. Her giver anerkendte professorer og lektorer deres bud, på hvad god ledelse kan være. Bogen tager udgangspunkt i teoretiske og filosofiske perspektiver på ledelse. Et særskilt tema er ledelse i den offentlige sektor. God ledelse henvender sig til alle, der beskæftiger sig med ledelse i praksis såvel som i forsknings- og uddannelsesverdenen.

This book examines the subject of school leadership as a profession. It tackles questions of what it means to be professional and to work within a profession, and how school leadership fits within these definitions. The book analyses five areas which, in the sociology of professions, are considered important for an occupation to qualify as a profession: knowledge base, education and training, ethics, working conditions, and formation of a professional identity. Based on these criteria, the book offers a comprehensive analysis into a sociological definition of the professional status of school leadership. The authors argue that school leadership is an emerging profession characterised by development and efforts across different areas. Contributing to the discussion and theorisation of professionalisation, this book will be valuable reading for scholars, researchers, and students in the field of educational leadership and educational policy.
