Todd Whitaker has shared a great reference for handling conflict in schools. He has improved his earlier editions with a Strategy Session section. The tips and strategies shared in this book help a school leader to focus on empowering the positive leaders in your school, modeling new teachers to a common vision and helping to refocus those teachers who have strayed from the vision. My favorite reminder is chapter 27- "There is Non One Else", a reminder that if the morale of a school is floundering, it is the school leader's job to change it!

I read this book for a graduate class in leadership. Although I am not a principal yet, it is an awesome read for anyone in education. I feel it can also be beneficial to those in the business world outside education. Just take out the word teachers, and you can easily substitute "workers". I liked this book so much, I also bought his book " Dealing with Difficult Parents"

I read this book five years ago. While I have worked with many excellent teachers, this is a must-have for the administrator who unfortunately has to deal with the likes of those who work overtime to undermine your efforts toward school improvement, negatively influence other staff members and gossip.

Play by play for dealing with difficult teachers! A must read for every principal. Practical strategies for handling ineffective teachers.
