Leverage Leadership: A Practical Guide to Building Exceptional Schools


For a decade, Bambrick-Santoyo worked with thousands of school leaders and observed how exceptional leaders brought schools
from “mediocre” or “good” all the way to “great.” From this work, he was able to identify seven areas of school leadership that
dramatically improve student learning.
He calls these seven areas “levers” because the exceptional leaders were able to “leverage” significantly more student learning out
of each school day by using these seven strategies.
While there are many books that describe the characteristics of effective schools (set high expectations!) or effective school leaders
(distribute leadership!) none of them come close to describing exactly what a leader must do to succeed. What stands out about this
book is that Paul is a practitioner (he’s a former principal himself), so he thinks through the steps principals would need to follow to
become great. He goes to a lot of trouble to describe the precise actions of top leaders. (Spoiler alert -- he’s big on lists!)
