Handbook of Applied Leadership in Education Jacques Mostert

Is it time for you to get onto the leadership ladder? Are you ready to take the next step towards headship? Are you ready to take your school to the next level of excellence? Do you have what it takes to be a head teacher and want to get started? Do you want to give your students the critical edge? Is your leadership team ready for a change? Do you want to lead your teachers from adequacy to mastery? Being a school leader is not easy. And to make things worse, there isn't a handbook that tells you how to cope when you're drowning in your inbox. What style of leadership works best in a school? How do I make the decisions that are right for my school? What should I know about Inclusive Education? How do I motivate stubborn staff? Everybody is going on about accountability and performance management, how do I hold my teachers accountable and keep them on my side? If I see one more complaint about teacher workload, I'm going to explode! The Handbook of Applied Leadership in Education cuts through layers of business jargon and leadership speak and gets straight to the heart of what you need to know to be a successful and masterful school leader. It combines the essentials in leadership theory, motivation psychology and hands-on, everyday practice to become your go-to leadership manual.
