Sir Tim Brighouse, former London Schools Commissioner and Chief Education Officer for Birmingham and Oxfordshire
The next generation of leaders in education – whether in schools, multi-academy trusts or national organisations – will be so much more successful for reading this readable book which matches theory with fascinating personal stories and cameos. I wish it had been written when I started out as a leader, or later when I was wondering whether or how I could go on as one. Today’s leaders can now have it at their side and wise leaders will refer to it on a regular basis.
