It seems that I have lost the first thing I have posted so will try again.
My first thoughts about this subject were when I was looking at the course outline. I thought that this subject is very relevant to the job that we do. I am a teacher librarian in a primary school and find myself approached very often by both students and teachers about many things.
I see leadership as being able to see what needs to be done and having the skills and capacity to do it. It is also about prioritising, organising and disseminating information. As someone who is older my experience with leadership has mainly been 'top down', in other words people in leadership positions have had power 'over' the group.
I believe this is gradually changing.
As I started to read the study guide I realised that this topic is huge and there are many more considerations that just TL as leader.
