Books used for staff development

Some of you asked for bibliographic information on the resources I used for staff development with both junior and senior staff. Here are the main resources:

The information about dealing with high-energy kids comes from:

Glasser, Howard, and Jennifer Easley. Transforming the Difficult Child: The Nutured Heart Approach (Tuscon: Glasser, 1998).

The information about emotional intelligence comes from:

Goleman, Daniel. Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More than IQ(Bantam: New York, 1997).

Goleman, Daniel, Annie McKee, and Richard Boyatzis. Primal Leadership: Realizing the Power of Emotional Intelligence (Cambridge: Harvard Business School Press, 2002).

The information about desire comes from:

Eldredge, John. Dare to Desire: An Invitation to Fulfill Your Wildest Dreams (Nashville: J. Countryman, 2002).

The information about spiritual growth comes from:

Carotta, Michael. Sometimes We Dance, Sometimes We Wrestle: Embracing the Spiritual Growth of Adolescents (Orlando: Harcourt Religion Publishers, 2000).

All of these books are available through Amazon, or other book dealers. Eldredge's book is on sale at Mardel's.
