The communication and relationship-building talents of school leaders are being tested in new ways daily: there is an increasing demand to hold all school efforts accountable for results, a new needs to manage around-the-clock news and commentary about schools and school programs, and building pressure to creatively engage key constituencies to build support for school efforts.
