`Developing Teacher Leaders presents a new paradigm of teacher leadership. It is filled with remarkable concepts, rich information, and practical exercises that readers will find invaluable′ - Gayle Moller, Assistant Professor, Western Carolina University, Cullowhee, North Carolina
The authors′ work builds on the current research and theory of teacher leadership and places it in the broader context of leadership. The authors also put forth the idea of "parallel leadership," that is teachers and administrators collaborating to foster, develop, and support teacher leadership. The leadership exercises contained in the book give teachers and administrators further opportunities to hone their leadership capabilities.
