Professional development leaders concerned with whole-system improvement will want to have a copy of this book on their shelves.", From an amazingly true-to-life perspective, this book explains how educational leaders can design, develop, and evaluate truly collaborative professional development . . .This second edition is intended to give supervisors and edge in the 'race for personal efficacy and collective power focused on student achievement.'
