Critic Reviews
“"Even the most seasoned school principal will find Whitaker's practical and intuitive approach to leadership useful in the best of times, but also it will help steer them as they lead through the worst. ... Without distilling the incredible importance and challenge of leading a school division or building, [Whitaker] also sets out a clear and understandable path to success and demystifies some of the unique aspects of school leadership. Any new or experienced school leader will find value, reinforcement, and solid advice within."--Becky Johnson, MiddleWeb Review,”
