Career Transitions

School Administrator, March 2018


As someone who has followed the comings and goings of thousands of superintendents over the years, Ive been noticing some striking parallels to the career transitions of corporate CEOs. This months issue addresses some of the similar aspects of job movement among those at the top of the organizational ladder.

Youll find full-length articles, for instance, on the phenomenon of school system leaders who with their interests and skills and the notion that are being viewed less unfavorably in some quarters. Those are also angles Im seeing reported about corporate leaders in the pages of The Wall Street Journal.

Weve also called on Hank Gmitro, who leads the countrys busiest superintendent search company, Hazard Young Attea, to contribute twice. Gmitro, an ex-superintendent, describes, first, he sees playing out in the superintendent search arena and, second, what he thinks those who become candidates in a search ought to look for in the .

Youll also want to read Stephen Joels  of what legacy can mean in the superintendency.

Lots of good reading, and I look forward to your feedback
