What Great Principals Do Differently

I liked this book so much I conducted research based off of it. I asked teachers..."Based on your teaching experience, what makes an effective or great principal?" Every answer I was given was covered in this book. This is a must have for principals.

Excellent Book!

This is an amazing book that puts the world of principalship into perspective. It helps develop a positive attitude and puts principals in the best frame of mind.

The Best

I could not put this book down. Out of all the educational leadership books I've read, this was a simple read with the most applicable suggestions. It is a resource that I can read over again and get more out of it.

A Great Read

Sometimes we all have to "recharge" in our professions. I enjoyed the read, as that's exactly what it did for me. I am refreshed and renewed. I am also more "reflective" about my relationships with other professionals in my school.

What Great Principals Do Differently

This is an excellent practical guide for making you a more effective school principal.
