Staff shortages, school reforms, personal conflicts – school leaders face complex organizational and educational challenges every day. How these challenges are addressed depends on where the focus is directed. Those who concentrate on the problem can easily get caught in its grip and feel overwhelmed. In contrast, when a problem is viewed from a systemic perspective, potentials and opportunities for development almost automatically become apparent. Leading systemically means acting consistently from a solution- and resource-oriented mindset. Diederika Forster and Ulrike Waterkamp demonstrate how to find and maintain this perspective at typical junctions in the daily lives of school leaders, such as personnel management, counseling, time management, and conflict resolution. The book also conveys systemic fundamentals and methods through exercises and materials.
