educational leadership and the author of over 50 books that have deeply inspired teachers around the world.\u003cbr\u003e Since its first publication in 2002, it has undergone constant revisions and expansions and has remained an Amazon bestseller for 20 years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The author, who provides consulting services to dozens of schools each year, cites the presence of an excellent principal as the most crucial factor in determining a school's success or failure.\u003cbr\u003e This book summarizes 20 differences between good and bad principals that he discovered through research, consulting, and his experience as a teacher and principal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Every school has its own characteristics, and every principal's experience is different, so every principal has his or her own unique characteristics. \u003cbr\u003eHowever, the great principals the author met shared several common characteristics.\u003cbr\u003e This is not about academic qualifications, certifications, or specialized knowledge.\u003cbr\u003e Great principals differ significantly from average principals in their perspectives and attitudes toward teachers, students, parents, the school board, and the community.\u003cbr\u003e Their perspectives and attitudes can bring about a change in the atmosphere in a short period of time and serve as a driving force for positive change.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e You can preview some of the book's contents.\u003cbr\u003e

First, I've participated in numerous studies over the years, which have allowed me to meet both effective and less effective principals in the schools I've visited and to learn what they do differently.\u003cbr\u003e Second, I provide consulting to dozens of schools every year. \u003cbr\u003eWe observed the performance of these schools and met with principals, teachers, students, and administrative staff to gain insight into what practices lead to success.\u003cbr\u003e The third path is very personal, stemming from the core values ​​that have guided my success as a principal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ---From the \"Preface\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e There is not much difference in the way a good principal and a bad principal view themselves.\u003cbr\u003e If you ask people to describe their main strengths and biggest weaknesses, the lists are largely the same.\u003cbr\u003e Teachers, on the other hand, describe good and bad principals very differently.\u003cbr\u003e Comparing teachers' views with principals' self-perceptions reveals only one point of agreement.\u003cbr\u003e These are the strengths and weaknesses of a great principal.\u003cbr\u003e A great principal is acutely aware of how teachers view their strengths and weaknesses.\u003cbr\u003e Most ordinary principals lack this awareness.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e---From “Chapter 3: The Importance of Correct Self-Awareness”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e If principals were more vigilant about preventing unnecessary bad news from spreading, schools would become much more productive places.\u003cbr\u003e If a principal, who's been called to a Board of Education meeting and hurled a tirade about academic achievement, returns to school and a teacher asks, \"How was the Board of Education meeting?\" How would a good principal respond? \"It was fine.\"\u003cbr\u003e “How are you doing these days, teacher? How are you?” he would reply.\u003cbr\u003e While efforts to improve academic achievement should continue, we must always be cautious about thoughtless words and actions that raise widespread concerns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ---From \"Chapter 6: Becoming a Filter for School\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Principals should understand the importance of social connections and encourage new teachers to associate with positive and capable colleagues whenever possible. \u003cbr\u003ePeople in negative groups are not only always active in attracting people to their side, but are actually quite good at it.\u003cbr\u003e Principals must pay special attention to ensure that new teachers are not drawn into negative groups.\u003cbr\u003e It's a good idea to ask teachers in the positive group to frequently invite new teachers, check them out, and even have them sit close to you in meetings.\u003cbr\u003e A new teacher's school life can be very difficult if they don't find positive colleagues.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ---From “Chapter 9: How to Keep New Teachers Energized”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The same goes for competent principals.\u003cbr\u003e They know that effective change depends on them.\u003cbr\u003e With purpose, planning, and persistence, you can create change in a surprisingly short time. \u003cbr\u003eAnyone who says it will take at least five years to change the culture of a classroom, school, or school district is either admitting they have never worked with the right people or that they don't have the skills to do so.\u003cbr\u003e Instead of admitting their incompetence, they may wish that the task were impossible.\u003cbr\u003e What kind of principals blame the teachers' union, the government, and parents for problems at school?\u003cbr\u003e ---From \"Chapter 10 Leaders Who Lead Change\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e There are principals who focus on and work with average or low-level teachers, no matter what.\u003cbr\u003e When asked why, great teachers say, “It’s because it’ll be okay anyway.”\u003cbr\u003e This is undoubtedly true.\u003cbr\u003e Of course, these outstanding talents will do well on their own and do better than anyone else.\u003cbr\u003e The class atmosphere and relationships with students and colleagues will also be maintained excellently.\u003cbr\u003e I won't show any disappointment or regret. \u003cbr\u003eBut we have to pay a greater cost.\u003cbr\u003e It is precisely at school that they lose their voice.\u003cbr\u003e Principals must be concerned about ensuring that the influence of excellent teachers extends to their grades, departments, and the entire school.\u003cbr\u003e We must not neglect the dedication of our most precious teachers by focusing on the wrong ones.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ---From “Chapter 14: Think of a Great Teacher as Your Standard”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When a teacher crosses the line, you may wait for another teacher to step in and stop them.\u003cbr\u003e Maybe once or twice someone will be able to stop him.\u003cbr\u003e But that bad guy will soon find someone else to harass.\u003cbr\u003e Just as homeroom teachers must intervene to stop inappropriate behavior among students, principals must effectively defuse negative atmospheres among teachers within the school.\u003cbr\u003e This is something that the principal must do. \u003cbr\u003ePrincipals should correct their behavior, or if that is not possible, consider whether they are truly essential to the organization.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e ---From Chapter 19, “Dealing with Negative and Incompetent Teachers” \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e -
