Great Reads for School Leaders

Posted by Unknown Rabu, 05 September 2012 0 komentar

Well the summer is unofficially over and all I can say is that it was one of the most productive breaks I have had in recent memory from a reading standpoint. I made a commitment to set aside time to read, something that I have failed miserably at in the past. The challenge for me though was to select books that were not only engaging, but would push my thinking on educational leadership. For me that equates into pleasurable reading. Obviously I am a non-fiction guy. I wanted to read not only for pleasure, but also personal and professional growth.

Not only was each one inspiring in its own right, but I was able to incorporate some of the principles and takeaways from each book during the first meeting with my staff yesterday. It is safe to This is a trend that will continue as the year progresses. It is safe to say that my choices, based in large part to recommendations from my Personal Learning Network (PLN) have had a profound impact. Below is my reading list that I highly recommend to all school leaders and any educator for that matter:

Linchpin by Seth Godin

Drive by Daniel Pink

The No Complaining Rule by Jon Gordon

Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

Trust me when I tell you that you will thoroughly enjoy these books and quite possibly rethink how you lead, innovate, and communicate. What would you add to this list?
