More Description Solutions for Promoting Principal-Teacher Trust is a quick read for busy practitioners. This book serves as a resource for current and aspiring principals, other school administrators, and teachers who want to know how to develop and maintain collaborative relationships between staff and principals. In an age of accountability, change is often mandated. School leaders cannot effect change without enlisting belief in their leadership. This book offers school administrators an opportunity to gain insight into principal and teacher perspectives on what particular behaviors are most effective in promoting trust.
With three easy-to-read tables summarizing the meaning of trust in schools, the most commonly identified principal and teacher trust-building behaviors, and a list of suggested trust enhancers for principals, the solutions proposed here can be a way for overworked administrators to gather practical information quickly. This resource offers school leaders a chance to focus their leadership on building and maintaining faculty trust early in their tenure, paving the path for school improvement.
