Synopsis: This text challenges readers to reflect on what they want to accomplish in their own careers and offers a behind-the-scenes look at becoming an effective leader and advocate. The authors provide information essential to the growth and development of counseling leaders and give newer professionals a clearer sense of what leadership and advocacy look like on the job. After a current perspective on what ethical and culturally responsive leadership entails, 13 counseling leaders- both long established and emerging and representing a wide range of cultural and intersectional backgrounds- share their unique stories in poignant personal profiles. The final section of the text highlights pertinent themes in the profiles and implications to strengthen the future of the profession. *Requests for digital versions from ACA can be found on www.wiley.com *To purchase print copies, please visit the ACA website here *Reproduction requests for material from books published by ACA should be directed to permissions@counseling.org
