Accelerated Wisdom

50 Practical Insights for Today’s Superintendent

About this book

Whether new to the superintendency or seasoned in our role, we all seek to grow in wisdom. To the extent we can accelerate the acquisition of this wisdom it improves our chances for success and gives us familiarity regarding how to handle the complexities of the job. The goal of the book is to assist with that task, to accelerate one's wisdom, and therefore provide a shorter path to effectiveness. Accelerated Wisdom: Fifty Practical Insights for Today's Superintendent refines knowledge, experience and research to focus on practical concepts for handling the daily challenges superintendents face. Notions such as how to retain key information, respond to requests from staff and the public, promote your ideas, maintain focus, and achieve life balance on the job are shared in a hands-on format. The book provides tools, tips, templates and examples which are designed to be easily implemented and to make an immediate difference in the life of those serving in the superintendency. Dig in, enjoy and accelerate your wisdom!
