Beschrijving:
The authors provide principals with the tools needed to help teachers and staff enhance their skills and improve student learning.
"At last we have a book that realistically, empathically, and interestingly describes leadership and the professional development work that needs to accompany it—for principals. It is all here: readings, web sites, theory, practice, helpful forms to use, vignettes of principals. Lindstrom and Speck are both ′insiders′ and ′outsiders′ teaching us in the best of ways how to both think about and act on our new knowledge!"
Ann Lieberman, Senior Scholar
Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching
"This is the book to read! I will recommend it to my colleagues the minute it is off of the press. The authors should be very proud of their work and contribution to a pivotal need in the field. Bottom line: It will help improve what we do for children—our ultimate purpose."
Becky J. Cooke, Principal
Evergreen Elementary School, Spokane, WA
