BOOK DESCRIPTION

Leading schools in the 21st century is often difficult and overwhelming. Educators and school leaders are facing complex challenges and massive disruptions due to technological advances, globalization and multiple generational perspectives. These challenges are having a significant impact on the number of educators willing to take on leadership roles in our schools today.

In the next few years we will face a crisis in leadership as baby boomers around the world retire, leaving a multitude of vacant Principal and Head of School positions that most Gen X and Gen Y are not motivated or inspired to undertake.

This book outlines a powerful way forward for School Leaders today and in the future to use innovation and creativity to successfully lead schools and empower 21st Century Learners.
