This edited volume assembles groundbreaking research on school leadership in Latin America, a region long underrepresented in international literature. It bridges a significant knowledge gap by examining school leaders who they are, their skills, beliefs, practices, and impacts within their educational communities. Researchers from diverse countries and organizations contribute perspectives using varied disciplinary and methodological traditions, offering a comparative view. The volume defines the regional knowledge base, highlighting commonalities and differences in leadership roles, essential for policy development and future research. By focusing on Latin America's unique context, it informs leadership frameworks, illustrating connections and divergences from predominant models. Broad regional trends and nuanced national studies provide a comprehensive understanding of leadership dynamics. With 13 chapters and an extensive introduction, it explores themes including professional profiles, leadership styles, supportive policies, and leadership in challenging circumstances.
