Recenzii

As executive director of Minnesota Association of School Administrators, I look for resources that will help aspiring or new superintendents be successful as possible in their first superintendent position. Kay T. Worner's book, Success in the Superintendency, is exactly the resource all executive directors should recommend. It is practical, timely, and full of great ideas for administrators.
Without doubt, Success in the Superintendency, is a book that superintendent licensing programs need to have for their students. It is a quick read, providing information and advice on topics important to administrators looking for their first superintendency.
As a first-year superintendent, I can't say enough about the quality and immediate applicability of the advice the book provided. When experienced, award-winning superintendents from all over the country share their words of wisdom, I listen!
This book is unique because highlights the advice and experiences of dozens of successful superintendents. A must-read for all new and aspiring school leaders.
Former State Superintendent of the Year in Minnesota, Worner (educational administration and leadership, St. Cloud State U.) provides advice drawn from other Superintendents of the Year who have been honored at the state and national levels to help graduate students and new superintendents face common challenges and issues. She identifies techniques such as leading with integrity, developing an effective school board, enhancing school-community relations, thinking strategically, facilitating meaningful change, advocating for students, and seeking, retaining, and transitioning positions, with tips and examples at the end of each chapter.
