Let’s face it, many school leaders are trapped in operation and management mode – this book will get you unstuck! Expert authors Jones and Vari provide a practical and empowering guide to help school leaders reclaim their time and sharpen their focus on improving teaching and learning. Based on the 3Ts method—Time, Tools, and Tactics—this book helps principals and assistant principals become more intentional and impactful instructional leaders.

Each chapter offers actionable strategies and tactics that guide leaders toward spending more time in classrooms offering feedback, and less time managing crises that others are better equipped to handle. By differentiating urgent from important work, offering a clear roadmap for leadership growth, and unpacking effective feedback practices to ensure the leaders message is highly impactful, this book helps leaders lift not only their own performance but also the entire school community. Whether you’re new to your role, an aspiring leader, seasoned administrator, or a district-level coach, this book delivers the clarity and structure needed to lead instruction with confidence and purpose. Everyone knows the importance of instructional leadership; this book is designed to help leaders learn the skills to do it well!
