Abstract

"The exploration of the intersection of leadership practices from the school principal and other educators, the school culture, and the school success across different high-need contexts and cultures make this volume unique. Chapters in this volume present original investigations or reanalysis of empirical research enhancing our understanding of the interrelationship between leadership, culture and success through descriptions of practice that can contribute to lessons in leadership for school improvement. When considering a culture of success, leadership that focuses on impacting schools in high-need areas bring about lessons on how to create sustainable environments for student learning in challenging contexts. High-need schools include not only socioeconomic challenges influencing the performance of students. It includes multiple external and internal factors impacting leaders, teachers, students, and their families, affecting the management of structures, processes, and most importantly, learning. In the quest to improve high-need schools, and understand strategies for principals dedicated to a variety of contexts, this volume brings lessons with application for researchers, policy-makers, and practitioners who want to join in the quest to improve the quality of education among worldwide communities"--

Abstract

"This book was published in Spanish in 2016, and was initially compiled in memory of Eduardo Flores Kastanis, PhD, who pioneered and promoted the Proyecto Internacional de Directivos Exitosos (International Project of Successful School Principals) in Mexico. In the Mexico volume, Dr. Flores Kastanis is honored not only as a researcher and a prominent professor, but also as a visionary with a great interest in educational transformation and innovation in educational management. He dreamed of transforming the organizational structures prevailing in the educational system, which, as he used to say, coincided with teaching and management models in the industrial era. His vision was that schools as organizations need to develop learning-centered knowledge. He left a great legacy to those who believe that this dream is possible to benefit education in México. This book includes fourteen cases of successful principals, with a clear example that this dream can be a reality"--
