Counseling Leaders & Advocates: Strengthening the Future of the Profession - Paperback

by Cassandra A. Storlie (Editor), Barbara Herlihy (Editor)

This text challenges readers to reflect on what they want to accomplish in their own careers and offers a behind-the-scenes look at becoming an effective leader and advocate. The authors provide information essential to the growth and development of counseling leaders and give newer professionals a clearer sense of what leadership and advocacy look like on the job. After a current perspective on what ethical and culturally responsive leadership entails, 13 counseling leaders--both long established and emerging and representing a wide range of cultural and intersectional backgrounds--share their unique stories in poignant personal profiles. The final section of the text highlights pertinent themes in the profiles and explores implications to strengthen the future of the profession.
