Educational Administration: Leading with Mind and Heart, 2nd
edition takes an organization-development approach to producing
effective leadership. Picture yourself standing in the middle of a
dense forest. Suppose you were asked to describe the
characteristics of the forest; what types of trees are growing in
the forest; how many acres of trees are there; where are the trees
thriving; where are they not? Faced with this proposition, most
people would not know where to start and "would not be able to see
the forest for the trees." Newly appointed school administrators
often have these same feelings of confusion when faced with the
prospect of having to assume a leadership role in a complex
organization like a school or school system. Where does one start?
An effective way to start would be to systematically examine the
components that make up an organization. Such a system of
organizational diagnosis and prescription will lead to a
comprehensive and integrated analysis of the organization's
strengths and weaknesses and point the way toward possible
improvement. This book suggests such a sequential and systematic
approach. Utilizing it effectively can produce dramatic and useful
results.
