About the Book

Unconventional Leadership is the leadership book that will connect the current trends and buzz in social media with the research behind the work. From popular hashtags such as #PrincipalsinAction #GoodNewsCalloftheDay

#CelebrateMonday

leaders today need to make sure every second of their day and the actions they take have a grounded foundation in practice that will support the growth and enhanced practices of the schools they serve. The author will guide readers through this work from the lens of the impact with the different stakeholders that are integral to the success of leaders and provide practical strategies they can try tomorrow in their classrooms, schools, or district office positions.

The book framework highlights the fact that we no longer can look just at the ‘whole child’ to make a successful school. Instead, we need to more broadly look at the whole educator, the complete family dynamic, and how to flourish relationships with people outside of the school walls. In short, we are going to look at the whole picture broken down in sections by the specific stakeholder. By building a strong foundation school leaders have the capacity to make instructional changes and innovative learning available to all students and teachers.
