Today, school systems face the challenge of developing the next generation of school leaders. This means more than simply hiring promising new leaders-it requires developing an effective mentoring program. True leadership mentoring must be carefully crafted with highly educated mentors and prepared protégés. But what are the elements of a quality leadership-mentoring program? This book answers six fundamental questions that school systems interested in creating a leadership-mentoring program should consider:
-How might a district interested in leadership-mentoring organize their work?
-What background is available in current literature on leadership-mentoring? How might the literature serve as an effective basis for program development?
-What theoretical framework can planners use to organize their program so that it will have unity and best respond to the hardest questions facing building leaders?
-What example of leadership-mentoring, which uses this theoretical framework, can be studied so that we can understand the emerging model in a naturalistic setting?
-What are the qualities of a fully-developed model for leadership-mentoring?
-How might such a program be implemented and connected to larger district priorities?
