In Fall 2009, AASA will release Resilient Leadership for Turbulent Times, by Jerry Patterson, Diane Reed and George Goens. The book will draw on the research and best practices to answer the question, “How can leaders move ahead in the face of adversity?”

Readers of the book will be invited to complete the Leader Resilience Profile, a confidential survey instrument designed to measure your own leader resilience strengths. However, you don't have to wait until the release of the book to complete the profile! Take the confidential profile today at www.ed.uab.edu/tri/lrp.asp.
