Guthrie, Chunoo, and Devies continue to advance justice, equity, and inclusion as the heart of leadership education. The 2018 Changing the Narrative makes a compelling case for WHY social justice and leadership education are inextricably linked. The 2021 Shifting the Mindset widens and deepens the discourse to address WHAT identities have been historically marginalized, and offers critical considerations for inclusion. The most recent volume, Committing to Action, wisely hones in on the HOW. By including empirical research, case studies, and a plethora of programmatic examples, the contributors detail specific steps and action-oriented commitments to enact this imperative agenda. -- Dr. Julie E. Owen (she/her/hers), Associate Professor of Leadership Studies, School of Integrative Studies, George Mason University Committing to Action unfolds in three transformative sections empirical understandings, identity, and action-oriented commitments advancing the critical work of the previous two volumes on Socially Just Leadership Education. In response to the pressing challenges posed by global crises, the authors advocate for a paradigm shift in leadership education. By focusing on committing to action, the book aims to empower leadership educators to navigate an increasingly unjust world with forward-thinking and holistic solutions that are action oriented. The diverse contributions not only offer critical reflections, but also provide practical guidance for educators to meet the demands of equitable leadership in an ever-changing world. -- Dr. Cameron C. Beatty (he/him/his), Associate Professor of Higher Education and Undergraduate Leadership Studies Program, Florida State University
