The biggest single issue currently facing school managers is how they should appraise their staff and what the implications of the process are. This edited collection brings together the latest thinking on the subject, from both the UK and overseas, and places it directly in the context of school management. Issues discussed include the role of appraisal in school leadership and the role of appraisal in developing teachers. The importance of this combined with the lack of published material on the subject make this book an essential purchase for all headteachers, heads of department, INSET co-ordinators and postgraduate educational management students.

'This is an important book and essential reading for all leaders in
education. Carol Cardno expertly shows how effectiveness can be
enhanced when complex problems are openly, collaboratively and
trustingly resolved. This book offers a refreshing insight into the
complexities of being a leader and exercising effective leadership
in modernised organisations' -Professor Tanya Fitzgerald, La Trobe
University, Melbourne Combining a theoretical and a practical
approach, this book provides a guide to educational administration,
management and leadership across sectors. The author focuses on two
particular topics: organisational learning and dilemma management.
More specifically, the author looks at how to bring about
productive relationships in order to solve complex problems. By
drawing attention to particular sets of theory and practice, Cardno
presents seminal and recent research that can be applied to
practice in an original way. The author demonstrates that
effectiveness is enhanced when complex problems are resolved
collaboratively and trustingly. Productive relationships are shown
to rely on openness and dialogue. This book will stimulate and
support practising and aspiring educational leaders at all levels
and in all types of educational organisations. Students,
practitioners and researchers in the early childhood, school and
tertiary sectors will find this book to be indispensable. Dr Carol
Cardno is Professor of Educational Management and until recently
was Head of the School of Education at Unitec Institute of
Technology. She has held several school management positions and
was principal of Waitakere College before establishing an
Educational Management Centre at Unitec in 1991.
