Summary

A social climate pervaded by culture wars, tribalism, and identity politics has put school leaders under fire from radicals on both sides of the political spectrum—as well as legislators, parents, and other individuals who no longer respect the very difficult job of educators.

In Leading in Chaos, Dr. Jim Largent draws from his 21 years as a superintendent to offer guidance on issues faced by education leaders today. His approach includes a blueprint for obtaining your desired job—with a focus on leadership roles in public education—and the transition steps needed to set yourself up for success.

Leading in Chaos presents concepts and anecdotes to show you how to work with a variety of people from bus drivers to board members to irate parents. Additionally, it provides a series of strategies that take leadership back to the bare bones of what actually works; the most effective leadership methods stick to common sense and time-tested principles.
