Transforming School Culture : How to Overcome Staff Division

Description

Busy administrators will appreciate this quick read packed with immediate, accessible strategies. Transforming School Culture provides a framework for understanding how school cultures operate and how leaders can overcome divisions to improve relationships and transform toxic cultures into healthy ones. Muhammad draws upon his study of schools across the United States to describe the tensions that impact culture among different groups of educators (Believers, Fundamentalists, Tweeners and Survivors). He offers strategies for working with each group to transform school culture and create positive atmospheres that not only tolerate change, but seek and embrace the changes that maximise organisational effectiveness.
