- Summary:
- "In Lead From the Start: How to Succeed as the New Principal of Your School, authors Tommy Reddicks and Tina Merriweather Seymour condense their cumulative decades of experience as school leaders into a guide for both new and veteran leaders. The authors note that, while there is no perfect system, great leadership can be achieved through a pinpoint focus on simple, strategic systems. Thus, this book provides a deeply informative and experience-based look at how leaders coming into a school can quickly develop best practices, leverage their creativity, avoid reactive processes, and more. The book goes a step further, providing numerous personal accounts and first-hand experiences, times for reflection, and discussion questions that will allow the reader to better comprehend and implement these lessons. Using this book, readers will be able to develop a unique system of leadership best practices that will not only keep them in the leadership role through the tumultuous early years, but allow them to improve their schools and ensure better outcomes for students, staff, and the school"-- Provided by publisher.
