Lamb-Sinclair, an educator and author, delineates eight leadership archetypes for educators wishing to create change: the diplomat, who leads by building relationships and creates change through a sense of fairness and integrity; the champion, who leads through passionate defense of a cause and creates change through advocacy of ideals and people; the creative, who focuses on divergent thinking and process-oriented instincts and promotes change through novelty and ingenuity; the storyteller, who leads with thoughtful attention to detail and fosters change through discernment and clear communication; the inventor, who leads with insightful detachment and a forward-thinking approach and creates change through free experimentation and initiative; the sage, who has perceptive insight and persuasive guidance and creates change with expertise and wise counsel; the investigator, who focuses on analytical curiosity and promotes change by asking probing questions and conducting research; and the guardian, who concentrates on compassion and service to others and creates change by nurturing and protecting the humanity of others. She discusses how to assess one’s change archetype and core drives; each archetype and its leadership style, approach to change, challengers, allies, and examples; how to respond to different types of conflict and leverage them for effective change; and how to create change, understand its setting, and navigate obstacles.
