Transform struggling schools into thriving learning environments with this practical guide in WestEd’s VITAL Education Series.Leading with Urgency introduces a practical, field-tested framework designed to help K–12 principals navigate the complex challenges of leading meaningful school change efforts. While especially relevant for schools facing persistent performance gaps, the framework provides valuable guidance for any leader seeking to accelerate improvement, strengthen instructional practices, and foster lasting success for students and communities.The author describes five essential levers—building relational trust and clarity, treating time as a resource, leading instruction, surfacing and shifting mental models, and implementing with purpose and staged support—that empower leaders to focus their efforts where they matter most. Each lever is supported by research, actionable tools, and real-world case studies that illuminate how urgent, intentional leadership can lead to lasting change.Written with both empathy and conviction, Leading With Urgency affirms that while the challenges of school improvement are complex, the path forward is clear and attainable. More than a guidebook, this is a call to action for leaders who refuse to settle for incremental progress and are determined to make a meaningful difference for students, teachers, and communities.Book Features:A Practical, Field-Tested Framework: Unlike theory-heavy texts, this book introduces actionable levers grounded in real school contexts, offering principals concrete strategies they can immediately apply to drive meaningful change.Relevant Across All School Contexts: While deeply valuable for leaders in schools facing persistent performance gaps, the five levers provide universal guidance for any principal leading school transformation—whether urban, rural, tribal, or suburban.Blends Research With Real-World Application: Each lever is supported by the latest research in school improvement and leadership, paired with vivid case studies and authentic examples from schools nationwide, making the work both evidence-based and relatable.User-Friendly Tools for Leaders: The book includes principal action tools, reflection questions, and implementation resources that are easy to use, enabling leaders to translate big ideas into practical daily steps.Focus on Lasting, Sustainable Change: Rather than offering “quick fixes,” this guide emphasizes building systems of trust, clarity, and capacity, equipping leaders to create improvements that endure beyond individual initiatives or leadership transitions.Part of the VITAL Education Series: Builds on the success of WestEd’s VITAL Collaboration to help educators visibly improve teaching and learning.
