The purpose of Leading the Way: Inspiring Stories from the Field of Health & Physical Education is not to establish one definition, behaviour, or theory, but to show and discuss the breadth of leadership that exists across the fields of health, physical education, sport, recreation, outdoor adventure, athletic therapy, physical literacy, and kinesiology. Through a number of real-life examples, the stories in this book demonstrate varying encounters and challenges where leadership opportunities emerged. Each chapter provides the reader an opportunity to reflect on leadership behaviours, skills, and actions (and in some cases lack thereof).
