Summary:

"This book is for every leader who wants to instigate change and create environments of growth, excitement, and passion. This book offers many techniques to help move from a top-down approach to management to a new style of "responsive organization" based on flexible roles, shared authority, and continuous learning and change. These new models of leadership and organizational design apply closely to even larger systems, including the schools and districts the authors work with every day. As they integrated these concepts and techniques with school leaders, the results have been tangible and effective in dozens of districts where we've introduced key practices"-- Provided by publisher.
