The Leadership Series
BA, TSTC, DipCrim, MACE, MAPs
Welcome
to the Leadership pages
There are two main publications in this series. They are
both about the theories and techniques of leading a learning group to get
the most out of the dynamics of the group’s interaction with it’s
members and the leader. Both books lavishly illustrate the the concepts with
real life examples on the accompanying DVDs.
By dynamics we mean that regardless of the
subject any group may join together to study, the group itself will have a
forming process and identity that a leader can utilize to maximize learning
opportunities.
Resourced and supported by a toolbox of proven and practical concepts, the
leader can plan and guide the group and the individuals in the group. Once
properly formed a learning group will be more effectively able get then on
with the business of learning what they nominally came together to learn.
Management, performance and resolution strategies can be established early
and the group’s identity and ethos can be built on an explicit but adaptable
framework.
LEADERSHIP: How to get the Very Best from Your Teaching or Training Groups
The book also comprehensively covers many areas of group behavior, motivation, structure and pacing, leader self care and ethical issues.
The course prescribed is a very practical, immediately applicable sequence of leadership techniques, and more importantly concepts, that can be used in any teaching or training group. It is accompanied by a seperate Administrators’ Manual for any learning group or organisation purchasing class sets.
The manual/journal incorporates a DVD which illustrates the key concepts with many real life examples. Once the theories are presented we can see them operating in video sequences recorded in a wide variety of learning groups.
The graphics
and live action scenes in the DVD are very high quality and reflect the
innovation, clarity and light-heartedness of Susie’s accessible and
‘user friendly’ text.
Standing
on the shoulders of giants
Many of the theories explained in the book are not
new - they are well accepted, mainstream psychological models - the way
Susie inter links them is new. Loosely connected theories are here for
the first time meshed into a very comprehensive set of unified concepts
with an warehouse of practical suggestions to help you get the very best
from your teaching or training group.
Build
this course around your leadership needs
Leadership
( the Very Best ) is a comprehensive, self-administered leadership training
course. This course is presented in a modular form.

for a more comprehensive outline.
Below is an assessment made by 'specialist management teachers' at Chisholm Institute - a TAFE ( Technical & Further Education ) institution with a seven campus network. Chisholm is home to almost 40,000 local and international students.

This includes frameworks for understanding problem psychological issues and for the remediation of these.
Both
titles stem from the same need to present an integrated overview of the nature
and experience of learning group leadership. Good
theories plus practical exercises to test and prove their effectiveness.
There are many valuable books that deal with elements
of learning group leadership, the Living Skills Library publications aim
at tying a series of well-known themes together into very practical but
firmly theoretically-based leadership courses.
