This is a book about educational leadership. It tells the stories of 7 educational leaders who made the difficult decision to change their school to public charter school status. Several of the stories are told by those leaders themselves. Their journeys span over 25 years in many cases. The authors also conducted follow-up interviews, dialogues, and investigations to investigate the keys to their sustained success over time. These leaders all possessed an unwavering commitment to their school communities and maintained unusual dedication to their stakeholders.
Defined by Moments breaks down the life of Gideon into 13 critical decisions that either advanced or diminished his leadership. Defining moments are not the grand successes or failures for which we are remembered but are the moments, hardly noticed by others, that create those public milestones. Gideon’s story is compelling in that he offers a balanced picture of leadership’s highs and lows. This book will challenge the interpretive notion that Gideon was a coward by arguing that he was an ordinary, faith-challenged leader whose defining moments shaped him. Every decision matters, and you will learn strategies to help recognize and act upon your defining moments.
