Dr. Vernon G. Smith captures the essence of 21st century Leadership. As he does so eloquently in all his roles as professor, statesman, and philanthropist. Dr. Smith evokes passion, commitment and honor. This book gives concrete direction to ameliorate current, and future leaders. I wholeheartedly endorse Creating Excellence: Becoming an A+ School., If you desire to become a better leader in k-12 schools or you teach leaders in k-12 schools, I recommend you add Vernon G. Smith's Creating Excellence: Becoming An A+ School to your leadership toolkit. Smith uses his many years as a principal, professor, and advocates for school change to guide the reader through the necessary attributes of a "Great" principal. The book is truly inspirational, highlighting how effective leadership can transform a school into a truly inspiring organization for all stakeholders. From creating a school philosophy to engaging parents, each chapter is a brilliant mix of theory and practice resulting in a roadmap that educational leaders can follow as they work to improve their school outcomes.
