"Distributed Leadership" is an exciting, new concept in education. It has to do with the ways in which leadership is exercised in everyday practice through communications and actions, and via others in the school community like teachers and parents. James Spillane, the leading expert on "Distributed Leadership," explores the distribution of leadership among various people in the school, and the extent and ways in which leadership is stretched over tools and physical materials in the organization such as memos, scheduling procedures, evaluation protocols, computer programs, and more. Spillane offers an overview of distributed leadership, a summary of research, examples of good practice, and guidelines for the future. This is the fifth volume in The Jossey-Bass Leadership Library in Education.
James Spillane is assistant professor of education and social policy at the Institute for Policy Research, Northwestern University. He is principal investigator of the Distributed Leadership Project, a longitudinal study of urban school leadership funded by the National Science Foundation and the Spencer Foundation. .
