In his new book, author and international keynoter Douglas Reeves
addresses a major challenge faced by today's school leaders: an
ever-growing load of programs and initiatives. Reeves contends that
program overload not only taxes leadership resources, but actually
hurts rather than improves student performance. Drawing on recent
research findings, this book shows how leaders can pare down from a
proliferation of initiatives to determine what is truly most
important based on their local concerns, challenges, populations,
and other school factors. Identifying a specific set of leadership
practices that are more strongly associated with improvements in
student achievement, Reeves provides explicit guidelines for how
school leaders can improve their most critical leadership decisions
by simultaneously engaging in three essential strategies:
monitoring teaching and leadership practices, building high degrees
of efficacy among staff members, and focusing on a smaller number
of priorities. Finding Your Leadership Focus is essential reading
for new and veteran principals, teacher leaders, and PLC book study
groups. Book Features: Practical guidance to help school leaders at
every level to focus on what is most important and to assess their
progress. Analysis correlating three years of student achievement
data and specific school leadership practices. Online video
conference support by Douglas Reeves for book study groups and
graduate classes who use this book. Online downloads.
