| dc.description | This study explored the experience of discernment of Alberta teachers in leadership roles when they face difficult situations in the education system. The author of this research interviewed two participants in in-depth interviews. The purpose of this research was to gain an understanding of administrators and individuals in leadership roles and how they navigate and make decisions in their roles. From this research, it was identified that administrators can take a religious or non-religious lens when facing difficult situations. Some administrators employed a religious lens when facing difficult situations, where teachings of the Catholic Church are looked at and spiritual practices are involved. The findings suggest that common concepts were used, regardless of religious views. These concepts included gathering information, clarifying the situation, rallying community resources for help, and ultimately making a decision. | |
