About the series
In 2024, Candlin & Mynard introduced the Leadership in Language Education Series, building on the foundation laid by the Positive Pedagogical Praxis Series edited by Tim Murphey. This series integrates theoretical models and practical case studies from leadership and psychology literature, making it an invaluable resource for educators and researchers. Contributors draw on insights from the business world, applying them to second-language acquisition research and practice.
Each book in the series is theoretically grounded yet filled with practical activities, procedures, and principles that promote profound learning experiences in diverse educational settings. Designed to be teacher-friendly, this series helps educators implement innovative ideas in their classrooms, bridging the gap between language education and leadership training. The volumes provide actionable strategies and real-life examples to inspire and cultivate the next generation of global leaders.
