"We each are a composite of what we believe, how we understand things, and the actions we take. As a leader, it is critical that your core values—your guiding principles—inform your leadership beliefs, thoughts, and actions," writes Maurice Sykes in Doing the Right Thing for Children.
"Based on my experience and success in the field of early childhood education, I have identified a set of eight qualities that I believe will lead to your success as a leader. These eight leadership qualitites are human potential, knowledge, social justice, competence, fun and enjoyment, personal renewal, perseverance, and courage."
"If you want to be an effective leader and bring about enduring change, these eight qualities of leadership are nonnegotiable."

Where is honesty and integrity?. Not only do they belong, but from my experience many leaders in early childhood lack them! I also wonder about social justice. We are all for it, but what exactly do we mean? Justice for whom?
