community working to build a powerful repository and
network of values-driven strategic and marketing planning
information and inspiration.

understanding of school leadership

school leaders and exchange best practices

Who is
the Leadership Library -- and Leadership Collaborative --
for?
Teachers, administrators, heads of school, board
members, parents and alumni. The Leadership Collaborative
is designed to assist you in leading others and planning
for the future of your school.
We have web readers who are constantly scanning online
resources for useful links, reprintable information
and planning tools to complement your planning efforts. We
also share our own presentations and those of
others for adaptation and use in your school setting and
share our opinions and thinking and those of others in white
papers and articles on topics of importance in school
life.
We hope you will become part of the Leadership
Collaborative by responding to the call for white papers,
presentations, articles or best practices. We also hope
you will return often. Contact us at research@planonline.org
if you have any special requests.

White
Papers
What’s on your
mind? Opinions, methodologies, recommendations, survey
results, or even musings can be great reading when they
are presented in a white paper. White papers published by
the Collaborative showcase who’s thinking about what
issues. White papers are invited from heads, faculty,
staff and board members, as well as association
spokespersons. We’ll always have a few of our own in the
mix, but the rest is up to you!

strike a chord that school leaders may benefit from. In
addition to white papers, we are accepting written texts

thought-provoking reading. We are looking for article on
particular subjects right now…
