broadcast journalist, public affairs and social media director and
government spokesperson. Each chapter - highlighting critical

in communication as a tool for district transformation leads us to

strategic communication strategy, a first book in today's
literature. We endeavor to help boards of education and
superintendents - aspiring, novice or veteran - to recognize the
vital nature of communication in the governance and leadership of

transparency in government, including public education, we offer
our primary target audience of school leaders with new principles
of communication that will help them to engage the community,
employees and stakeholders in helping to make their school district
successful!

Growing Leaders Within: A Process toward Teacher Leadership will
aid school administrators in the task of growing and empowering
teacher leaders. The goal of growing teacher leaders is to grow a
school culture of shared decision-making and collaborative
leadership. It is through this transformation that teacher leaders
help school administrators to create a laser focus on student
success. The underpinnings of the book are based on academic
research resulting in a seven-step process to growing teacher
leaders, which is distinctive from other books about teacher
leadership. Schools may have several teacher leader candidates, but
it is the responsibility of the school administration to ensure
that the right individuals are chosen to become part of the
school's leadership team. The role of teacher leadership can be
diminished if the wrong individuals are selected. In response to
this, the book offers school administrators a research-based,
pragmatic growth process that ensures the right teachers are chosen
to enter the leadership ranks at any school. Growing and empowering
teachers to be leaders is now critical in all schools.
