strategies for taking charge in the elementary school principalship

by Michael Fullan, Liz Zmich, Penny Adler

Cover of What's worth fighting for in the principalship?

This book is designed to help principals (and teacher leaders) fight for fundamentally positive changes that will benefit themselves and their students. Because principals are very often overloaded either with what they are actually doing or with all the things they think they should be doing, their actions, however unintentionally, are frequently shaped by outside events and/or the actions or directions of others. In the heart of this book, "Guidelines for Action," the author helps principals break the cycle of dependency both for themselves and for those with whom they work.
