Assessing Educational Leaders Summary

Assessing Educational Leaders: Evaluating Performance for Improved Individual and Organizational Results by Douglas B. Reeves

While plenty has been written about evaluating teacher performance, there is a dearth of material related to evaluating educational administrators. Douglas B Reeves, a national expert on the topics of educational assessment and accountability, writes a book that draws on the current research, theory, and best practices of leadership, organizational performance, and personnel evaluation. The book would contain the information and tools necessary to evaluate all types of educational leaders and improve performance.

Assessing Educational Leaders Reviews

This is precisely what we need to get us to the next level of student success through better leadership. -- Terry Thompson, Superintendent
At a time when school leadership is central to the success of students, Reeves offers a comprehensive means to measure the critical elements of effective school leadership. -- Vincent Ferrandino, Executive Director
Research studies increasingly support the significant impact that effective leaders have on school performance. A skilled leader is an essential component in successful school reform. This book makes a compelling case for transforming leadership evaluation from perfunctory to a focus on performance, reflection, and results. -- Gerald N. Tirozzi, Executive Director
Doug Reeves' Assessing Student Leaders is a practical, compelling tour de force. If you ever had doubts (as I confess I did) that assessing leaders could have a powerful influence on school quality, think again. This is one of the most important books I have read in some time. -- Mike Schmoker
Assessing Educational Leaders boldly addresses sensitive issues and, more important, provides innovative ideas and solutions. -- William Harbermehl, Superintendent
Assessing Educational Leaders will be a valuable tool for superintendents, school boards, and other school leaders who are interested in taking the next step toward ensuring high performance for all students, all schools, and entire systems. -- Chris Wright, Superintendent
Assessing Educational Leaders provides a fresh, new approach that can help those responsible for assuring high quality schools. The evaluation model presented does more than `weigh and measure.' It provides a framework for true leadership development. -- Anne L. Bryant, Executive Director
