Picture a master sculptor meticulously wielding his chisel, gradually unveiling a breathtaking sculpture of Lord Krishna from a solid marble block. As spectators stand in awe of its beauty, they eagerly inquire about the sculptor's secret to crafting such a masterpiece. His humble response resonates deeply: "Krishna was already in the marble block. I simply chipped away what wasn't Krishna." In essence, this embodies the journey of self-transformation. We are inherently complete, possessing all the necessary skills to lead a fulfilling life. Yet, obstacles and barriers may hinder the full expression of our potential. My Master, Sri Sathya Sai Baba says, “An Integrated Personality is a harmonious synthesis of a Sharp Brain, a Kind Heart & Competent Hands. He/She is a beautiful combination of Nobility and Ability”. You are already that…Right Now. As a coach, my role is to serve as a gentle guide, reminding and assisting you in reclaiming what is rightfully yours. Throughout this journey, I intend to gently remind you of what you already know. While I may offer perspectives or insights based on my experiences, there is no absolute truth in what I convey. Feel empowered to discern what resonates with you, retaining what serves you best and releasing what doesn't. However, I have a humble request: "Please don't blindly agree or disagree with me. Instead, explore and test these ideas alongside me." Approach it like trying on a new coat—step into the trial room of your life and see how these concepts fit. In the pages ahead, we'll explore various tools and techniques, each with its purpose and relevance.

WITH A FOREWORD BY LINDA DARLING-HAMMOND Did you know that close to half of today's jobs in the U.S. could be done by robots and that proportion is rapidly increasing? It is quite possible that about half of today's high school graduates will not have the knowledge or skills needed to get a decent job when they graduate. Tomorrow's high school graduates will be able to thrive in this environment, but only if school superintendents, central office executives, and principals use the strategies employed by the world's top-performing education systems to build the high-performance education systems today's students will need to succeed tomorrow. In Leading High-Performance School Systems: Lessons from the World's Best, Marc Tucker, a leading expert on top-performing school systems with more than 30 years of experience studying the global economy and education systems worldwide, details how top-performing school systems have met head-on the challenges facing school leaders today. You'll learn why our current system is obsolete, explore the knowledge and skills needed to design and build first-rate education systems, and gain a solid understanding of the key elements of high-performance school systems, including the following: A powerful, coherent instructional system with school-leaving certifications that mean much more than today's high school diploma. Partnerships with first-rate universities to ensure a steady supply of highly capable, well-educated, and well-trained teachers. Schools reorganized around highly qualified professional teachers with a career ladder they can climb. High expectations and personalized support to ensure that children arrive at each grade level ready to learn. An equitable system that closes the gaps in student performance. Vocational education for talented youth seeking an applied, academically rigorous education.

Leadership in today's organizations is a tough business. Organizational leaders face a number of challenges as their jobs, and the world around them, become increasingly complex. Trends, such as organizational "delayering," rapid technological advances, and increased employee empowerment require that leaders adapt their techniques and styles of leadership to meet these new challenges. Consequently, there has been an explosion of interest in leadership in recent years as researchers and management educators struggle to understand the process of leadership development, how it operates, and what characteristics make effective leaders. Born of these questions, the 11th Annual Kravis-de Roulet Leadership Conference at Claremont McKenna College brought together an impressive slate of scholars whose theories, research, and cutting-edge techniques are now gathered together in this impressive volume. Each chapter asks and answers questions about the current state of the field while providing future direction for research to help bridge the gap between leadership researchers and leadership development practitioners. Notable topics include chapters on "e-leadership" and leadership within the "virtual" organization, exploring 360-degree feedback, the importance of "social capital," and a comprehensive analysis of the well-researched theory of Leader Member Exchange.
