About this book

`This is a book packed with ideas and insights. It is informed by evidence from school leaders and provides a valuable overview of many important theories and research findings. A strength of the book is the way it pulls together empirical research the authors have conducted over the last 20 years. Such a long term view offers a new and needed long term perspective on school leadership and enables the authors to show how trends in leaders? careers, thinking and practice have emerged and unfolded. Researchers and practitioners alike will find something of value in this book? - Professor Geoff Southworth, Director of Research, National College for School Leadership
