Moving toward True North: Maxims for New Principals

By Jeffrey T. Brierton

True north is not something school principals and leaders just find it s something you keep moving toward each and every day. Jeffrey T. Brierton, Ph.D., a longtime school principal at two high schools in the northern suburbs of Chicago, expands on the themes he first wrote about in Keeping Your Shield: Becoming A Warrior Principal to share a roadmap for school principals to produce great outcomes for students. The challenge for the principal is to keep moving forward, to keep the faith, and stay on course amid the relentless winds of change that will throw even the strongest leader off course. Principals, veteran and new, must find their own set of signposts, illuminating their own path, to ensure that they keep moving toward their true north. Dr. Brierton is able to capture the rewards of forging the path instead of following one. His truths are valuable lessons for all leaders Sarah Fontana, high school administrator
