The Principal's Hot Seat: Observing Real-World Dilemmas, 2nd
edition provides a window through which aspiring and practicing
school leaders observe and evaluate some of the most challenging,
authentic, and unpredictable interactions common to the
principalship. With video footage from an unscripted role play in
which teachers, parents, and stakeholders share a variety of issues
and emotions with the principal, the Hot Seat challenges readers to
unpack the ways principals attempt to address routine and
unpredictable challenges in school leadership. From distraught,
pushy, or irate parents to teachers refusing to collaborate,
curriculum controversies and cultural responsivity, readers assume
the "hot seat" and feel the challenge principals face in navigating
conversations and issues in ethical, individual, standards-based
ways. Each chapter begins with stage setting and scenario
background information, along with relevant literature, research,
and resources, followed by a transcript of the interaction, and
questions promoting discussion, reflection, and constructive
critique. Each scenario comes alive through several minutes of
video footage of the unscripted interaction, allowing examination
of body language, tone of voice, and non-verbal communication. The
second edition adds new scenarios related to teacher collaboration,
controversial curriculum, current social issues, updated literature
and resources, and cases in which the principal must interact with
more than one stakeholder at a time. New questions examine
principals' performance related to equity, when to seek assistance
from others, and more.
