Abstract Achieving excellence begins with hard work at the ground level. There is no question that the stakes have been raised and that school leaders have more pressure--and more opportunity--to make a bigger difference than ever before. Award-winning author and educational reform expert Michael Fullan takes the subject of moral leadership to the next level by showing how to put change into practice at the local and systemic levels. He explains how the combined forces of shared leadership make the difference, and outlines proven ways to: create a culture of moral leadership; drive change with school leaders; achieve system-wide progress; avoid educational blind alleys. School leaders and principals must answer the call to drive the change our children deserve. This invaluable resource will inspire, educate, and provide a map for blazing the trail to success. --Publisher description.
