Rezensionen

"The 3rd Edition of Dealing with Difficult Teachers is one of Todd's greatest books yet. He provides a plethora of new strategies guaranteed to strengthen the weakest of school cultures that are brought down by ineffective staff members. Todd leaves readers with best practices aimed at doing what's best for kids all day, every day."

--Brad Currie, Co-founder of #Satchat and New Jersey School Administrator

"School administrators must read this book! Whitaker cohesively equips school leaders to confidently deal with difficult teachers while empowering "superstar" teachers through autonomy and recognition. New to this edition, Strategy Sessions guide proactive solutions and responses for administrators to foster positive learning atmospheres instead of allowing problems and negativity to dominate our school cultures."
