Principal Pro: An Authentic Leadership Playbook for Managing Crisis, Building Teams, and Maximizing Resources

The Principal Pro is a collection of real life case studies from the author's administrative tenure in urban education. She deliberately and strategically selects events to share using the power of real storytelling (interjected with appropriate humor) to illustrate likely scenarios most programs do not prepare today's leaders to face. The Principal Pro also provides tips after each case study (event) to pull out lessons learned and tips for the seasoned and neophyte administrators alike to consider and learn from 20/20 hindsight.

“In these past several years of intensity around the need to dramatically reform our public schools, we have paid little attention to one of the most powerful levers of change--school leaders. Kris MacBury’s book documents keen insights into the challenges of-and avenues to-strong and effective school leadership. A must read!” --Dr. Joseph Wise, Co-Founder & CEO, Atlantic Research Partners
