Litchka, Polka, and Calzi who possess a combined total professional experience of over 100 years as educators in the United States, including over 75 years as public school administrators and over 30 years as chief school officers. They each have experienced the excitement as well as the trials and tribulations associated with being an education decision-maker in various school districts.

They are committed to appropriately preparing current and aspiring leaders to survive and thrive in the superinetendency by conducting research about contemporary leadership issues. The authors know the topic of school leadership very well from both the practical lived experiences to the various theoretical research conceptual frameworks.This book reflects actual stories collected via their most recent research associated with school district leadership, decision-making, politics, and living on the horns of dilemmas.
