It’s about the work, not the position.
Leadership is what is done, not who is doing it. The leadership work blurs the lines between teachers and administrators. Leading Together introduces a collective approach to progress, process, and programs to help build the conditions in which strong leadership can flourish and student outcomes improve.
All school teams will find applicable insights as they explore the Collective Leadership Development Model for School Improvement. This book:
- Breaks down this innovative model and explains the significance and interdependence of each proven and tested component.
- Asks fearless reflection questions that both challenge and demand deliberate practice.
- Offers case study insights from an urban, rural, and suburban school.
Lead and learn together. Start building your team with an eye on the end game.
