Module 2 Discussion
Probing Perspectives on Culturally Responsive Practices
As a change leader, you will encounter opportunities and challenges to advocate for social justice. Sometimes the leadership you provide will be unambiguous; other times it will require more thoughtful discernment and judgment. Johnson (2012) offers guidelines that support culturally responsive leadership in situations where prejudice, stereotyping, and/or ethnocentrism are likely. These guidelines include mindfulness, dignity and integrity, moral inclusion, and cosmopolitanism.CLICK HERE TO GET MORE.........
