Here is a handbook that will guide each reader through ten chapters that include models, tools, and exercises to develop collaborative leadership. The Courage to Lead is written by two successful school principals that have provided practical lessons and activities that will build the leadership capacity of anyone who reads it. Included in this book are ways to increase collaboration with reciprocal benefits for leaders and followers and ways to develop and sustain top performance in leadership. Servais and Sanders have written this handbook with a hope and spirit of celebration to encourage leaders who have chosen the road less traveled not to travel alone. Will be of interest to school superintendents, principals, teachers, professors of educational leadership, and candidates in administrative graduate programs.
