What community and education leaders are saying about the second edition

"Hank Rubin has fashioned a new and needed vision for collaborative leadership that can work anywhere—especially in schools. Rubin properly argues that public school success is not a top-down enterprise; it is a collaborative one. He reminds us that well-managed relationships and intentional collaboration are essential skills for all school leaders, from those teaching in classrooms to those running state agencies. This is a must-read for teachers and other champions of school policies and practices that support the success of every student."

John Wilson, Executive Director
National Education Association

"Hank Rubin translates complex, contextually driven processes into digestible bites. The text is compelling, refreshing, and a joy to read."

Chris Ferguson, Program Associate
Southwest Educational Development Laboratory

"Rubin's book provides an eloquent and practical articulation of collaborative leadership and its potential to improve the partnership of communities and public schools."

Wendy Caszatt-Allen, Teacher and Author
Mid-Prairie Middle School, Kalona, IA
