Doing the Right Thing, Though Difficult, Is Always Correct

This book contains fourteen scenarios and solutions, each of which is based on real-life situations that the author faced as a principal and superintendent. The scenarios are designed to challenge readers and small groups to consider important questions in a college or university graduate leadership course.

The solutions section provides insight into the author's approach to each scenario, outlining the actions taken and the relevant Professional Standards for Educational Leaders that apply. Throughout his nine years of teaching at the University of Northern Iowa, coordinating the superintendent preparation program, and teaching in the principals licensure program, the author recognized the importance of combining theory and concepts with real-world experiences to truly impact future leaders.

By presenting these challenging scenarios, the book aims to foster discussions and debates among readers, encouraging them to think critically and apply their knowledge to real-world situations. It serves as a valuable resource for educators and aspiring leaders who are committed to doing the right thing and making a positive impact on their communities.
