Recenzii
'This is a powerful, thoughtful book that goes beyond treating symptoms, towards looking at the root causes of poor wellbeing. We are shown that leaders who build teams that are trusted offer teachers high levels of agency, enabling workload to be viewed as meaningful and purposeful. Strategies are offered that are aimed at supporting leaders to develop a culture of collective endeavour. This is a compelling resource for leaders everywhere - highly recommended for practical audit resources alongside case studies that offer evidence about what truly makes a difference.'
Dame Alison Peacock, Chief Executive of the Chartered College of Teaching
'The book thoughtfully examines how leaders can create an engaging and vibrant school climate and culture, building an environment where teachers and all staff thrive. The research is clear, where staff report a positive climate, this underpins a virtuous cycle, impacting student learning, relationships and a sense of belonging. While much of the policy and frameworks referenced are from the UK, the practical strategies and steps are equally applicable in the US. This is a timely and must have resource for district leaders, principals, and those aspiring to these roles.'
