This book will guide the reader to develop a personal leadership style for entrepreneurial success. The practical strategies and implementation notes will guide the reader to define a personal success style, promote team support and keep life in balance while working in a position that can feel chaotic at times. The book is written as a handbook filled with practicality followed by reflection notes for the reader to engage in mindful leadership. The daily interactions of a site principal are critical to the success of a school to thrive academically and socially. Every minute of a leader's day can be an opportunity for success or failure dependent upon the decisions made. Great decisions simply can not be made by burnt out, tired, out-of-touch administrators without a vision of success who haven’t learned to prioritize; keep kids first, make a plan then work it and truly lead others to their highest potential.
