Walter Peddy's  Lift for Principals is a guide that supports educational leaders in the mission to impact the world student by student, teacher by teacher.

Applying the parable of Colby to leadership principles, Peddy offers an in-depth guide to leadership methods, and equips readers with the tools, techniques, and decision-making strategies needed to lift their organization and personal leadership skills from good to great.

"When Dr. Peddy talks about 'lifting' he is talking about caring, coaching, and having the courage necessary to help people be the best they can be. Anybody that has a team needs to read this book and learn how to 'lift' using the 3Cs!" —Damon West, keynote speaker and bestselling author of  The Coffee Bean
