Description: This is a book about alternatives to the status quo of "might makes right" in running a school. It's a book about diversity and equity; about people changing people's lives. Nine diverse women's personal stories about their experiences give you a different way of looking at school leadership. These women see power not as "power over" but, rather, "power through and around and in-between." These women make a real difference in the lives of their students and staff. This diverse group of women will help guide you in creating a new type of school leadership that is both challenging and exciting. Add your voice to theirs, and change people's lives.
