Educational Leadership as Civic Humanism
Wiens, John R.
Yearbook of the National Society for the Study of Education, v105 n1 p199-225 Apr 2006
Most of us started our superintendency committed to keeping our eye on the higher purposes of education, vowing not to get bogged down in the managerial details. John Wiens shares his quest for an intellectual understanding of the role, a meaningful theory of leadership, and the creation of an environment that helped others pursue similar quests. (Contains 9 notes.)
