At last, everyone can access Jill Berry's wisdom, wealth of knowledge and experience from the book shelf! If you have not had the pleasure of connecting with Dr Jill Berry prior to reading this book I assure you that after reading it you will want to.
Making the Leap is a must-read for any senior leader who aspires to headship. Jill has balanced research from her doctoral findings alongside her own personal career journey to create this incredibly practical, informative, thought-provoking and inspiring book.
The questions for reflection at the end of each chapter are particularly helpful in challenging your own thinking and planning for the next steps in your leadership journey. Jill's passion for education is infectious and I feel humbled to have met her several years ago, when I was in a middle leadership position. Jill has had a huge impact on my recent career path: now her sound advice and guidance about preparing for headship and beyond is succinctly transcribed into print form for all to glean from.
As I read each chapter I could feel butterflies of excitement and anticipation building and I will certainly be referring back to the book often as I make the leap!
