The call for entrepreneurial leadership in education has never been
stronger, but there is little descriptive information about this
kind of leadership and even less advice on how a leader might grow
in this dimension. Beginning with the constant need for innovation
in every learning organization, the author makes a case for an
entrepreneurial style of leadership in education. The author paints
a multi-faceted picture of entrepreneurial leadership using stories
of real leaders in combination with writings from the social
sciences, education, natural sciences, business and the arts. The
incursion of business practices in education is also addressed
head-on. The author defends the historic, democratic tradition of
education against 21st century neoliberal trends, while allowing
room to learn from best practices in other fields. The role of
risk-taking and incentives is examined along with leadership
motives. The goal of this book is not just better leaders, but
educational organizations that are entrepreneurial in nature. The
author offers practical advice to educational leaders, from
teachers to principals to superintendents, on practical steps
toward a more innovative organization. Specific chapters on the
school leader, teacher leaders and school partnerships offer
practical wisdom for out-of-the-box thinking.
