Leading in Chaos: A Commonsense Blueprint for New and Aspiring School Leaders

A social climate pervaded by culture wars, tribalism, and identity politics has put school leaders under fire from radicals on both sides of the political spectrum-as well as legislators, parents, and other individuals who no longer respect the very difficult job of educators. In Leading in Chaos, Dr. Jim Largent draws from his twenty-one years as a superintendent to offer guidance on issues faced by education leaders today. His approach includes a blueprint for obtaining your desired job-with a focus on leadership roles in public education-and the transition steps needed to set yourself up for success. Leading in Chaos presents concepts and anecdotes to show you how to work with a variety of people, from bus drivers to board members to irate parents. Additionally, it provides a series of strategies that take leadership back to the bare bones of what actually works; the most effective leadership methods stick to common-sense and time-tested principles.
