Create the schools our students deserve with a new model for school leadership.

The challenges facing education leaders, such as underprepared teachers, growing educator burnout, and increasing complexities of school operations, have pushed traditional leadership models to their limits. A New School Leadership Architecture introduces a bold strategy to reimagine school leadership by shifting from lone-hero narratives to collaborative, well-defined roles that empower leaders at every level of the system.

Drawing on more than a decade of educational research, Lindsay Whorton introduces a four-level model—Team Members, Team Leaders, Bridge Leaders, and School Leaders—that offers a coherent approach to transform the way schools are run. Whether you're a classroom teacher, aspiring leader, or school administrator, this book equips educators to:

Redesign how leadership roles are structured to meet evolving school needs
Implement change effectively using practical exercises, planning templates, and real-life examples
Grow into new leadership roles with step-by-step guidance on shifting skills, time applications, and professional identities

Every student deserves access to an exceptional education, and every school requires a dynamic leadership structure to make that possible. A New School Leadership Architecture delivers a revolutionary framework that supports teachers, empowers future leaders, and prioritizes student success.
