Finesse & Common Sence in School Administration

Education is, first and last, a people business. Very little, if anything, can be accomplished in education without working with and through people. Knowledge and training in school administration are extremely important to an administrator. Also crucial to effective leadership are the administrator's working relationship with others and his or her finesse and common sence in day-by-day operation. This book contains principles, practices, and real-life examples of finesse and common sence that may mean the difference between success and failure of the administrator. The ideas presented here are based on events the author has experienced and observed during his career as an administrator.
