"This exciting and unique text brings together leadership theory, popular culture and action research to inspire and empower female teachers into leadership roles. Teach Like a Queen celebrates the successes of iconic women and translates their respective brilliance into becoming successful, dynamic, and high-performing practitioners and educational leaders. Focusing on seven key inspirational women as archetypes, the authors address emerging professional issues which will benefit classroom practitioners and leaders, each correlating to a different Nolan principle and inspirational queen. Inspired by the incredible work of #WomenEd, including a Foreword from Vivienne Porritt, each lesson features: a constructed definition of each respective icon and how that translates into the teaching profession; a case study exploring how a female school leader experienced her own Queen moment and the leadership lesson it taught her key lessons for aspiring leaders; takeaway actions to channel your inner queen Illustrating how a diverse cross-section of women personify the leadership strength of their assigned principle in practice, Teach Like a Queen will empower female teachers to aspire to lead and equip them with practical strategies to secure and fulfil leadership roles"--
