Biography
Colleen A. Capper is Professor Emerita of Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA.
Kevin Lawrence Henry, Jr. is Associate Professor of Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA.
“In teaching organizational theory for prospective doctoral students for over 25 years I was struck by the lack of diversity in perspective regarding the various organizational theories and applications. That is until I came across Colleen Capper and Kevin Henry’s Organizational Theory for Equity and Diversity. In a clear and methodical approach, the foundational theories are advanced and explained in a multi-cultural and diverse manner. Offering connections to theories from multiple perspectives, Capper and Henry also cleverly offer leadership development activities as well as personal case study development, thus effectively bridging the difficult gap between theory and practice. This well written and organized text is perfect for understanding and creating equitable educational organizational designs in the pre-K to graduate level institutions. I highly recommend it.”
