Leader Credibility is a must read for every educational leader. All too often school improvement plans and initiatives fail - not on their merits but on the credibility of the leader. Educational leaders need to be strategic about how they contribute to or derail the success of these initiatives. This book provides a frame for how to build leader credibility and provides many opportunities for structured self-reflection. -- Randy Clyde * San Bernardino City Unified School District * This book offers tangible ways to build your leadership credibility and concrete methods for building strong relationships that will cultivate a culture of trust and community. -- Betty Zavala * Klein ISD * I highly recommend this book. Teachers are yearning for great leadership. This book helps educational leaders analyze the skillset it takes to lead with credibility. -- Dawn Massey * Okaloosa County School District * The authors share relevant research, illustrations, and tools for self-reflection which can be used to impact the daily work of school leaders. By reading this book, leaders will be challenged to think more intentionally about how they build trust, competence, dynamism, immediacy, and how they become more forward-thinking. -- Alisa Barrett * Greenfield Exempted Village Schools *
