Overview

This module focuses on the important topic of what it means to be a leader of an early childhood program, and will help you develop your own leadership style from the inside out. Research provides compelling evidence that capable leadership is one of the strongest predictors of high-quality early childhood programming. This module stresses the point that there isn't one best leadership style that all directors should emulate. To the contrary; inspirational leaders come in all shapes and sizes.
