Doctoral Dissertations and Projects

K-12 Florida Christian schools were disrupted due to the advent of a global crisis brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. Flexibility was needed by educational leadership during this time of crisis. For that reason, this study will aim to understand the leadership principles necessary to provide leaders with the flexibility to adapt to extreme circumstances.

importance and current level of graduates’ social and emotional competencies. The survey was completed across five sectors:

An Introduction To Emotional Intelligence, Aiden Carthy, Ailish Jameson

Therefore, there is a notable need for a single volume that synopsises the research …
