"Woven throughout this entire book are the critical questions, strategies, and resources needed to support leaders as they build the best schools in the nation. The author uses principal/mentor dialogues to identify, develop, and strengthen areas that will transform schools. The Power of Conversation will undeniably become the benchmark for inciting change in today's schools through the use of conversation."Joey L. Washington, Ed.D., Assistant Principal, Galena Park High School.
Barbara Kohm has written a powerful book that benefits all educators, not just educational leaders. The Power of Conversation provides leaders with the tools to handle difficult situations with professionalism and a focus on positive outcomes. This book assists leaders in creating positive relationships and building a school culture that benefits all stakeholders.
