Driving Leadership is an innovative audio case study series that brings together the voices of forward-thinking school leaders and leading academics to highlight topical and insightful school leadership issues. Designed to be listened to while driving in the car, perhaps to or from work, in the office or at home, the series introduces a new and accessible form of learning - giving school leaders the opportunity to develop their knowledge of school leadership by listening to others talk about how they do their job.
There are four case studies in this first series, all of which feature contributions from school leaders and leading academics to bring to life key leadership practices by sharing their experiences and to encourage listeners to consider how these practices might work in their schools.
The case studies are now available in mp3 format. Subscribe to the podcast to automatically download future mp3 files when they are published, or to get CD copies of the Driving Leadership case studies please order using the instructions below.
