Two Books You Must Read To Reclaim Your Purpose--It's Easy If You Do It Right TheSchoolHouse302 One Thing Series School Leadership Podcast

    • Education

Featured Author: Compilation of Authors
Featured Book: THE SOCIAL PHILOSOPHERS MAN AND MAN (THE WORLD'S GREAT THINKERS SERIES)

Our second book this month is a terrific must read and something that we believe should be revisited from time-to-time. Todd Whitaker has become a force for educational leaders as they learn how to navigate challenges. We chose, What Great Principals Do Differently not only because it offers simple and sage advice for school leaders, but it also helps leaders reclaim their purpose.

One aspect that we truly appreciate is how Whitaker describes that we must invest in people. And, we can’t think of a more important time than now to do so. As he describes,

“We can spend a great deal of time and energy looking for programs that will solve our problems, but these programs frequently do not bring the improvement or growth we seek. Instead, we must focus on what really matters. It is never about programs, it is always about people.”
