More About This Book

Overview

Finding the Time for Instructional Leadership is centered on the principalship and is designed to offer busy school leaders strategies for finding the time to be genuine instructional leaders. John C. Leonard provides a set of tactics-or "keys"-that will guide readers' reflection on the issue of instructional management. These seven keys offer principals suggestions for overcoming the daily barrage of secondary responsibilities that redirect valuable time and energy away from academics. The keys offered are not in a prioritized must-do list, nor are they intended to be an all-or-none approach. Principals searching for time solutions are encouraged to consider each of the keys and adopt, adapt, or reject the suggestion as it applies to their personal leadership circumstances.
