“We need more writing like this from more people like Murry Schekman. It is far too common for new school leaders (and veterans) to feel as if they have to make their way all alone. School leadership is an incredibly isolating experience; even more so than classroom teaching. When experienced, skillful, accomplished, and compassionate leaders like Murry share their wisdom it grounds theory into practice and closes the all too common knowing-doing gap in our field. We need more writing like this to share what we should be learning from the ground with the next generation of leaders so that they don’t have to learn it all over again”
