This textbook uses real-life examples to illustrate the ways in which administrators and school leaders can effectively engage and enlist partnerships with teachers, staff, students, parents, and community members. Chapters introduce communication and relationship concepts and provide specific examples of how great educational leaders have put the concepts into practice. Case studies at the end of each chapter apply the strategies to realistic scenarios, and "Questions for Analysis" help readers engage critically with the material.
