A practical guide to helping school leaders overcome those discomforting self-doubts. "It's not that grad school was useless, exactly. It's just that I have a few notes. Sure, learning about leadership theory was cool, but the syllabus seemed to be missing a few things. Where was the seminar on handling an angry mob? On working with your bullying boss? On promoting someone else's unpopular plan?" As a school leader, you know how hard the job is.

A practical guide to helping school leaders overcome those discomforting self-doubts. "It's not that grad school was useless, exactly. It's just that I have a few notes. Sure, learning about leadership theory was cool, but the syllabus seemed to be missing a few things. Where was the seminar on handling an angry mob? On working with your bullying boss? On promoting someone else's unpopular plan?" As a school leader, you know how hard the job is. Even the most talented and best prepared of us sometimes struggle to meet the complex, conflicting demands of stakeholders and serve our students and staff the way we want to. Author and veteran school administrator Elizabeth Dampf is here to help. In Am I Cut Out for This? she reassures school leaders that * Self-doubt is a natural response to daily encounters with demanding situations. * You're not alone, even though few administrators are comfortable openly admitting to uncertainty. * You can prevail by analyzing your doubts and strategizing counterattacks. Dampf presents seven familiar self-doubting archetypes-the jittery innovator, the empty empathizer, the punching bag, the struggling salesperson, the mob mollifier, the short straw, and the instructional impostor. In each scenario, she "debriefs the doubt" by exploring the complex challenges the leader faces, identifies pitfalls to avoid in addressing such circumstances, and suggests ways to navigate a path to success. Whether you are new to the profession or an experienced administrator, Am I Cut Out for This? is the tool you need to affirm, support, and inspire you to continue your leadership journey with greater skill and confidence
