Rezensionen

"Building Dynamic Teamwork in Schools strategically illustrates some of the best leadership lessons through the majestic flight of geese. Brad Johnson and Robert Hinchliffe invite leaders to witness the grace and beauty of geese while learning from their strengths. Throughout the book, readers can almost hear their melodious honking, and picture the synergy of their teamwork.

Johnson and Hinchliffe provide practical strategies to help leaders enhance team chemistry and synergy, similar to the interactions of the geese. They offer practical tips and activities to unleash the potential of a team, and to elevate a group of coworkers to become a team of interconnected colleagues.

I was inspired by Johnson and Hinchliffe's explanation of the safe and supportive V formation and the merit of shared leadership and team building. Johnson and Hinchliffe eloquently outline this and many more lessons from nature."

"Johnson and Hinchliffe captured the essence of synergy within transformational teams. They use the "V formation" as an exemplar for collective efficacy through the essential elements of communication, trust, collaboration, clear vision, and purpose. The 12 Principles outlined in this book are certain to create high-perforforming teams that produce high-performing students within high-performing schools."

-Rachel Alex, Ed.D., Leadership Consultant and Coach

"I found that Building Dynamic Teamwork in Schools is even more dynamic than its title presents! As a leader of the turnaround process for nearly a decade in the 5th largest school district within the United States of America I can, and frequently do, testify on the critical importance of a positive climate and culture with the entire team. When we do things with people, it sticks. When we do things to people, it doesn't. You can't optimize achievement if you do not build structures for positive relationships and school governance. It does not mean everyone will get their way, but it does mean that everyone has a seat at the table for their voice to be heard. Brad and Robert do a fantastic job laying out the "how" from the setting of norms to the outcomes, while simultaneously ensuring an entertainment value in his choice of stories and words. I highly recommend reading this publication and sharing it with members of your staff too."
