At a time when countless educational reforms, mandates, and change programs are being foisted on our public schools, it seems clear that new approaches and solutions are needed.

He explores new ways of thinking about school leadership, organizations, and learning, gently leading the reader to a new viewpoint of schools and the educational process. He puts into perspective recent educational and organizational research and discoveries and demonstrates how they must be applied to our schools in order for true reform to happen.
