Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leadership in Recreation and Leisure Services presents cutting-edge guidance and helps students apply their newfound knowledge as they prepare to enter the rapidly changing leisure services field.

The contributors present a comprehensive look at modern leadership, identify the challenges future leaders will face, and reveal how future leaders can best prepare to meet those challenges. Leadership in Recreation and Leisure Services provides • a detailed look at the collaborative approach to leadership in leisure services that represents a new direction in the field; • insight into classical leadership as well as innovative and modern leadership theory and best practices; and • an understanding of the roles and functions students will fulfill as they enter the profession. The material, designed for undergraduate recreation and leisure services leadership courses, is presented in three parts. Part I explores personal leadership issues, including communication skills, negotiation strategies, and leadership styles. Part II delves into professional leadership, examining topics such as group dynamics, supervision practices, and team leadership. Part III explores organizational leadership, including internal and external leadership and professional development. The authors present new theories of leadership from research in the field of recreation and leisure. Several learning aids—including chapter-opening scenarios, key terms, glossary, references, and chapter-ending questions for reflection and discussion—appear throughout the text. In addition, each chapter features a Leisure Leaders sidebar that profiles a leader in the field who addresses preparation for the job, a peek at day-to-day work, and advice for aspiring leaders. And a Best Practices sidebar showcases an organization whose innovative leadership has led to positive organizational outcomes. Leadership in Recreation and Leisure Services helps students understand the range of leadership skills they need to develop for successful careers.

Download or read book Therapeutic Recreation Leadership and Programming written by Robin Kunstler and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2010-06-14 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Therapeutic Recreation Leadership and Programming will help students learn the essential aspects of professional practice while developing a leadership mind-set. The book focuses on the day-to-day responsibilities of the therapeutic recreation specialist (TRS) while integrating ethical considerations into each aspect of the job. Readers will learn how to perform the daily work of a TRS while maintaining the highest ethical standards of the profession. The book details · the principles, theories, and codes of ethics that will form the foundation of specialists’ understanding of the field and set the stage for practice; · the knowledge, skills, and leadership principles that TRSs will need in order to help their clients accomplish therapeutic outcomes; · strategies that will guide TRSs in planning a wide range of programs and services, including information on frequently encountered health problems, major program areas, facilitation strategies, and client and program evaluation; and · methods for program organization and delivery that will prepare specialists to offer a regular schedule of therapeutic recreation programs that meet the needs of all of their clients, whether in group or individual settings. The book will arm students with the information and tools they need in order to succeed as therapeutic recreation specialists. It familiarizes students with their future clients by describing the health concerns most often encountered in therapeutic settings. Case studies for the most common concerns provide students with concrete examples of how programming works in various clinical settings. The book also provides specific recreation activities from five major program areas, along with information on the effectiveness of the activities, risk management concerns, and implementation strategies. Step-by-step instructions for structuring, planning, and leading both group and one-on-one sessions will prepare students to implement programs in a wide variety of settings. Stories from professionals in the field, examples of real and hypothetical clients, and case studies show students how to use the principles they’ve learned when leading programs. Learning activities help them to further explore the concepts in each chapter, and highlight boxes emphasize key ideas related to each chapter’s content.

Download or read book Leadership for Recreation, Parks, and Leisure Services written by Christopher R. Edginton and published by Sagamore Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third edition is unique. In the first edition, entitled Leadership in Recreation and Leisure Service Organisations, the authors organised the effort into separate theoretical and practical applications sections that covered a variety of direct service areas. The second edition was split into textbooks, Leadership in Recreation and Leisure Service Organisations and Leadership for Recreation and Leisure Programs and Settings. The current effort focuses on bringing together a number of interrelated elements that influence leadership in recreation, parks, and leisure service organisations. The first part of the book discusses the work of leaders and includes presentation of theoretical and foundational information. The second part focuses on leaders in groups. Finally, the third part is dedicated to leadership elements in a number of recreation, parks, and leisure service settings. Leadership in Recreation, Parks, and Leisure Services also features many distinctive pedagological elements. The authors have identified learning objectives and key terms at the beginning of each chapter. This will be useful in helping students focus their attention to the intent of each chapter. In addition, each chapter has marginal quotations featuring perspectives from notable individuals. These quotations will provide heightened awareness and understanding of the subject matter. Also featured in each chapter is an outstanding leader in the recreation, parks, and leisure service field. These vignettes, known as A Legacy of Leadership, feature historic and current figures in the recreation, parks, and, leisure service field. Further, leadership perspectives from professionals across the United States are included in the section entitled Leadership: A Point of View from the Profession. Each chapter is concluded with discussion questions, a case study, and experiential learning experiences from which students can explore and analyse their own thinking, engage in problems-solving strategies, and reflect upon their own thinking regarding leadership.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Leadership is a process and an experience that impacts all of us in our roles as leaders and as followers. Generally, it is a positive opportunity that enables us to learn about ourselves and others. We know leaders are good people who make a difference in the lives of others. What we often don't fully understand is how leaders make that positive impact -- That is part of the allure of leadership. This text presents leadership as a personal journey that takes conscious effort to undertake and develop. Leadership is one of the keystones of successful parks, recreation, and leisure services agencies, organizations, and programs. How we deal with people, how we interact with fellow staff, supervisors, participants, and the general public all make an incredible statement about who we are and what our profession is about. This book is designed to help students of leadership begin (or renew) their personal journey toward leadership. Section I -- The Foundation: Developing the Underlying Construct provides information to serve as a framework around which the other two sections are built. This section offers background material such as definitions, theories, and material about human development -- the bedrock upon which all other elements of leadership are built. Section II -- Working with People: The Essential Skills of Leadership provides developing leaders with information about the interpersonal side of leadership. Many argue that leadership is all about interpersonal components; after all, a leader interacts with others through everything she or he does. Here students will begin to consider issues surrounding communication, motivation, behavior management, and group dynamics -- heavily interrelated areas that have a large impact on successful leadership. Section III -- Synergy: Pulling it All Together brings together the foundational material from Section I, blends it with the interpersonal information in Section II, and challenges the reader to think about the application and practice of leadership as it relates to diversity, leader values and ethics, risk management, and professional and social issues in parks and recreation. Leadership is best developed and refined through experience. Thus, during the learning process presented in this text, readers are encouraged to seek out as many opportunities for leadership practice as possible, including public communication skills, conflict resolution skills, and motivation skills; to expose themselves to issues and experiences outside of their comfort zone and stretch themselves; to increase their self-awareness; and as much as possible, to practice, reflect on experiences, seek out feedback, and practice some more. Leadership is a never-ending journey." -- Publisher.
