Synopsis: Solution-Focused Strategies for K–12 Leaders provides K–12 principals, administrators, and district-level professionals with powerful, flexible strategies to build and sustain a school climate in which teachers and students co-construct solutions together. School leaders today face an intimidating variety of challenges, from teacher shortages and administrative overload to political battles and complex family relationships. Driven by the evidence-based Solution-Focused approach, this book will support practitioners in empowering students based on their personal hopes, strengths, and motivations instead of focusing on deficits and punishment. Intuitive instructions, real-world vignettes, and additional online resources further bring the book’s tenets to life. With foundations in therapy, positive psychology, and school counseling, these broadly applicable response-to-intervention techniques will help education leaders to improve climate, develop teacher–student relationships, refine trauma-informed practices, manage conflicts with parents, and more.
