Outdoor Leadership, Second Edition, is the definitive text for developing student leadership in outdoor and adventure settings throughout the world. Crafted by an author team internationally recognized for their research, teaching, and experience in outdoor and adventure leadership, this new edition provides students with the foundational knowledge they need to develop as competent professionals in the field. Through Outdoor Leadership, Second Edition, students are introduced to eight core competencies that the authors consider essential to outdoor leadership: 1. Foundational knowledge; 2. Self-awareness and professional conduct; 3. Decision making and judgment; 4. Teaching and facilitation; 5. Environmental stewardship; 6. Program management; 7. Safety and risk management; 8. Technical ability. This unique approach to outdoor and adventure leadership will help students meet current professional standards in the field as they prepare for careers in education and recreation. The students move step by step through the materials and assignments, gaining and demonstrating leadership competencies, which they will document through a portfolio of their course experiences. The development of these portfolios is a highly practical and valuable takeaway for students looking to get a leg up as they ready themselves for their careers. This latest edition of Outdoor Leadership offers new features, material, and resources, including: The expertise and perspectives of new author Marni Goldenberg; A new chapter on program assessment; A new chapter on developing cultural and social justice competencies as an outdoor leader; A redistribution of the content on values and ethics (formerly a single chapter) across multiple chapters; An increased emphasis on international perspectives; A stronger focus on outdoor leadership in the area of ecotourism; Revisions to address critical issues.
