Build on your staff’s strengths for optimized leadership
Best-selling author Sheryl G. Feinstein demonstrates how educational leaders can apply a popular business prototype of leadership strengths and the latest brain research to lead effectively. Her new book, co-authored by veteran administrator and instructional leader Robert W. Kiner, outlines four leadership styles—executer, relationship builder, influencer, and strategic thinker—and shows how to capitalize on them to:
- Create a positive school culture
- Mentor and supervise teachers
- Keep track of standardized testing
- Foster community partnerships
- Use data to inform curriculum and instruction
The authors link current cognitive research with the challenges of educational leadership to make clear the links between neural wiring, learning, and leading.
