ReviewsLisa Leali nails it in Leading Through Chaos! This is one of those books for leaders at every step in their careers. As written, "This book enables us to see that leadership is about teams who can work to create spaces that encourage and celebrate educators to be their best, every day, for students." Every element in this leadership book is on the mark - we're in this together, we're in this for each other and for students, and we can and will lead through whatever challenges we face., Every school leader is or will be confronted with a crisis that requires decisive action, and this reality is increasingly predictable. In Leading Through Chaos, Lisa Leali, an Illinois superintendent, illustrates how to draw on personal and professional experiences and relationships when navigating difficult conditions... For a first-time or a current superintendent entering a new district, Leali's experience provides a useful perspective. [Other] school leaders similarly will want to assess what actions are most appropriate for their setting., Leading through Chaos is not just another leadership book. It is a guide that takes readers through the nuances of leading during turbulent times or in dysfunctional organizations. Packed with resources and case studies, Dr. Leali provides leaders with tools and actionable strategies to lead organizations in the toughest of times. Her expertise, experience and transparency is a gift to any leader, new or experienced. Bravo!

SynopsisOrganizational crisis and chaos create drama that is complicated, layered and difficult to unravel without a roadmap. New leaders, especially those who find themselves in an organization in crisis need to hear how others have experienced that challenge and managed to emerge trusted, supported and having moved the entire organization to a new and better place without losing themselves in the process. This book provides a crisis identification checklist, ten strategies for managing chaos and reflection questions to support the leader's health and wellness. Utilizing the familiar story of the Wizard of Oz and specifically Dorothy's experience as a young, female, new leader, anchors the work and provides a familiar and comforting backdrop for managing this extraordinarily difficult and specific leadership challenge., Leading through Chaos supports a new leader struggling to understand how to identify and manage chaos while moving a school or district to a new and more focused reality.
