Principals and Leadership--An Interview with John Gardner. A "Bulletin" Special.
NASSP Bulletin, v72 n509 p70-78 Sep 1988
During this interview, John Gardner, former Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare (1965-68), comments on the substantial overlap between leaders and managers. When principals perform as leaders, they are preoccupied with vision, values, motivation, and renewal. They become politically expert at bargaining, mediating, sorting out, persuading, communicating, and judging while performing. (MLH)
