Democratic principals in action

Description:

Best-selling authors Blase and Blase have teamed up with two outstanding educators to create another excellent book for principals who aspire to democratic leadership in their schools. These authors do not deal in lofty idealism, but rather in the realities of today's schools, including the unavoidable bureaucratic and political obstacles. Democratic Principals in Action is a series of portraits of eight principals, with details revealed from countless interviews. The authors chose successful principals who have a wide variety of leadership styles and are from a diversity of school settings. Through trial and error, learning and growing, disappointment and success, these principals have achieved remarkable success in empowering teachers and implementing shared governance in their schools.
