This is a narrative inquiry of Dr. Joan Wynne's transformative leadership in education that traces the roots of Wynne's social justice activism and rich descriptions and examples of her transformative leadership qualities. Akin to a Russian doll, integrity is the overall case within which all of Wynne's transformative leadership qualities reside--constant love and caring for others; respect for other's ideas, and the shifting of their perspectives; deep and active listening skills; the ability to build and maintain networks of relationships; commitment to the theory and practice of social justice; and hope in the power of youth to enact positive social change.
