In a world full of conceptual theories of leadership, Pam Ryan goes back to experience to discover patterns and principles that actually work for the person in the bosss chair. After decades leading in Australian and overseas schools and government, she has honed an understanding of what concepts count in the real world. This book is in 4 parts, dealing with: – THE ART OF LEADERSHIP – LEADING TEAMS – LEADING CURRICULUM – INNOVATION. The focus is schools and education, but like a breath of fresh air her striking insights inspire readers in any career, who find the typical pontifications of experts do not solve all their problems. Includes case studies and diagrams.
