The work reports evidence about successful school leadership along with indications of how they navigate the complex layers of influences on schools, teachers and students in building and sustaining success. This is mostly qualitative case study evidence resulting from the 20-year ongoing International Successful School Principalship Project (ISSPP), the largest and longest-running mixed-method qualitative research project in the world about successful principalship. The book includes individual reviews of the case studies conducted in individual countries (e.g., UK, US, Australia, Spain) as well as an overarching meta-synthesis of the research evidence across all countries. It addresses four broad questions: How was principal leadership ?success? defined in each of the countries and cases? What leadership practices were used by successful principals to achieve and sustain success? What were the personal qualities of successful principals in different organizational and national contexts? How did the enactment of successful leadership practices vary over time and across contexts? The book appeals to a wide audience, such as university faculty and graduate students in educational leadership programs; school administrators; school middle managers, and policymakers. 410 0$aStudies in Educational Leadership,$x2543-0130 ;$v30 606 $aSchool management and organization 606 $aSchool administration 606 $aPsychology, Industrial 606 $aLeadership 606 $aInternational education 606 $aComparative education 606 $aSchools 606 $aEducation and state 606 $aOrganization and Leadership 606 $aLeadership Psychology 606 $aInternational and Comparative Education 606 $aSchool and Schooling 606 $aEducational Policy and Politics 615 0$aSchool management and organization. 615 0$aSchool administration. 615 0$aPsychology, Industrial. 615 0$aLeadership. 615 0$aInternational education. 615 0$aComparative education. 615 0$aSchools. 615 0$aEducation and state. 615 14$aOrganization and Leadership. 615 24$aLeadership Psychology. 615 24$aInternational and Comparative Education. 615 24$aSchool and Schooling. 615 24$aEducational Policy and Politics. 676 $a371.2 700 $aDay$b Christopher$038714 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911047674203321 996 $aGlobal Perspectives on Successful School Principals$94477851 997 $aUNINA
