<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>For educators, administrators, and businessfolk: An A-Z of straight-forward lessons on becoming--and remaining--a truly great boss<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Leadership is the key to excellence. And leadership can be learned. Thank goodness, because many people who fall into managerial positions haven't the foggiest notion how to lead. They don't feel driven to attain the competencies of a boss -- much less a great boss. Lorraine Monroe is a born leader. She caught the bug early, as secretary of the student council in the fourth grade at P.S. 157 in Central Harlem. She went on to found the Frederick Douglass Academy in Harlem, a remarkably successful and innovative public school, and became one of the most respected education reformers in America. Now Monroe translates her extensive experience in New York City public schools into the Monroe Doctrine to show other education and business leaders how to create and maintain high-achieving organizations. <p/><i>The Monroe Doctrine</i> offers readers concrete lessons in the craft of leadership. Its brief, catchy lessons and anecdotes will help potential leaders tap into their natural gifts and harness those gifts to lead seemingly by instinct. Monroe's personal story of conquering the most overwhelming challenges will inspire leaders of all types to try new ideas to enrich their lives and the lives of their organizations. With <i>The Monroe Doctrine</i> by their side, readers will be able to lead any organization -- whether a hospital, a house of worship, a sorority, a family, a school, or a business -- with renewed passion and results.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Dr. Lorraine Monroe</b> has over thirty years of experience as a teacher and administrator in the New York City public schools, most recently as principal of the Frederick Douglass Academy, widely hailed as a model of effective inner-city education.
