About the Book

Understanding the dynamics of trust is an imperative undertaking for educational leaders. In this book, using an ecological perspective of the lifecycle, the authors situate trust as an essential ingredient of school leaders’ moral agency and ethical decision making.



Based on their 15 years of research on trust in education, the authors describe the nature and dimensions of trust, its importance and imperative, and its fragility and usefulness for school leaders, positioning them as trust brokers in school organizations. The book offers a detailed description of trust’s lifecycle stages, namely establishing, maintaining, sustaining, breaking, and restoring, as pertinent to educational settings. It discusses leaders' trust brokering in relation to social capital and psychological contract and interconnected hosting virtues of compassion, hope, and trust. The authors conclude with the role of maturing vision of moral agency, the subjective and objective responsibilities of educational leaders, and the necessary ethical commitments and courage to enact transformative practices in order to provide trustworthy leadership.



With its theoretical and empirical basis, this book is an excellent resource for scholars in the fields of education, business, and leadership. It is also a valuable resource as required or supplementary reading for graduate courses in educational administration, leadership, and policy studies. Practitioners in these areas will find valuable insights that they can incorporate into their work.

Review :
‘Kutsyuruba and Walker’s The Lifecycle of Trust in Education: Leaders as Moral Agents is a very timely, useful, and thought-provoking book that consolidates the authors’ research and offers a synthesis of their writing over the past 15 years. It consists of a total of 16 chapters over an easy-to-read 232 pages organized into three parts: understanding trust; trust lifecycle; trust brokering and moral agency. Within each part, the authors embed an excellent review of the literature while drawing directly upon their own research so readers can hear authentic voices of active and engaged school leaders. I found that their style allowed me to feel like I was participating in the various conversations about trust and encouraged me to reflect upon my own related experiences of trust in various organizational, professional, and personal contexts.’ ‘This volume by Kutsyuruba and Walker is a timely examination of an overlooked but essential component of relationships among leadership, staff, and faculty within educational institutions, namely trust. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students, faculty, and professionals.’ 'The Lifecycle of Trust in Education offers comprehensive coverage of leadership and trust that spans classic and contemporary approaches. The book takes leaders on a critical journey through the meanings, shape, and applicability of the ecology and brokering of trust, moral agency, and successful leadership. A must read for those with a vested interest in education.'
