Behind the Overseas School Administrator's Desk (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Overview By Dr. Lance Starr This novel, though a work of fiction, includes many reality based anecdotes about what happens behind the scenes in an overseas administrators office. Many actual interactions are included with the people, the city, the school and even the country name changed. The various travel vacation sections are accurate to the time the trips happened. The in-school anecdotes that at first might seem most far- fetched, are based on or closely related to actual happenings in these schools. Tips or advice about choosing contracts in certain countries are accurate, as of the beginning of the 21st Century. Take "the pressure cooker" to your office with you, you'll be glad you did. In cross cultural positions, this could provide support. To help you judge the real from fantasy, don't forget the high standards of behavior that are expected of school Directors stateside and around the world.
