Organizational Theory for Equity and Diversity cover

Organizational Theory for Equity and Diversity covers the full range of organizational theories as applied to educational leadership practice and research, exploring not only traditional perspectives but also critically oriented epistemologies including Critical Race Theory; LatCrit, Asian, Tribal Crit, and Black Crit; Disability Studies theories; feminist theories; Queer Theory, and theories of intersectionality. Each chapter features teaching suggestions, discussion questions, and questions to help aspiring leaders critically analyze their leadership strengths and limitations in order to understand, apply, and integrate theories into practice. This new revised 2nd Edition includes updated coverage of the latest epistemological literature, expanded applications to practice, and a revision of the popular Identity Development Inventory. This valuable text provides aspiring school leaders and administrators with the theory and tools for creating equitable and diverse schools that are effective and sustainable.

“In teaching organizational theory for prospective doctoral students for over 25 years I was struck by the lack of diversity in perspective regarding the various organizational theories and applications. That is until I came across Colleen Capper and Kevin Henry’s Organizational Theory for Equity and Diversity. In a clear and methodical approach, the foundational theories are advanced and explained in a multi-cultural and diverse manner. Offering connections to theories from multiple perspectives, Capper and Henry also cleverly offer leadership development activities as well as personal case study development, thus effectively bridging the difficult gap between theory and practice. This well written and organized text is perfect for understanding and creating equitable educational organizational designs in the pre-K to graduate level institutions. I highly recommend it.”
