Eight Keys to an Extraordinary Board-Superintendent Partnership

This book draws on author Doug Eadie's work with hundreds of boards to provide detailed, hands-on guidance for building and managing a board-superintendent partnership that is close, positive, productive, and enduring. Eadie describes how the superintendent can wear the "chief partnership officer" hat while leading and managing a board-superintendent partnership program. Special attention is paid to such critical partnership building tools such as: Empowering the board Building board member ownership of their governing work Making governing work easier and more fun Involving senior administrators in providing executive support to the board For superintendents, school board members, and school system senior administrators.
