Principals Who Learn: Asking the Right Questions, Seeking the Best Solutions

(May 2007 Book)


Barbara KohmBeverly Nance

 

Synopsis

In Principals Who Learn, Barbara Kohm and Beverly Nance explain how the "little things" in a school can end up meaning a lot, and how principals who constantly learn on the job can reduce the risk of being blindsided by unspoken grievances and hidden agendas. Learn why every school needs structures and cultural norms that encourage people to speak directly to one another about issues that are important to them. This book explores lots of practical ways to keep on top of the human relationships and dynamics at work in your school.

This interview was conducted by ASCD associate editor Leah Lakins.
