In this inspiring five-part book, Kanold presents the concept of a heartprint – the distinctive impression that an educator leaves on students and colleagues. In a conversational, humorous tone, HEART! offers teachers and leaders guidance in regard to what they can do to uncover their professional impact and foster heart-centred classrooms and schools.

• examine the five unique aspects that make up the HEART of a professional life, happiness, engagement, alliances, risk and thought
• answer essential questions that will help them understand their distinctive heartprint
• gain wisdom and profound insights from dozens of teachers and thought leaders
• journal throughout the book to ponder the heartprint they have left on the people in their lives and professional experiences
