Reading

Principals must live with paradox: They must have a sense of urgency about improving their schools, balanced by the patience to sustain them for the long haul. They must focus on the future, but remain grounded in today. They must see the big picture, while maintaining a close focus on details. They must be strong leaders who give away power to others."

-- Richard DuFour, "Help Wanted: Principals who can Lead Professional Learning Communities." NASSP Bulletin (1999).
