Summer Reads

I had a great opportunity to take a non-nursing course! It was an Educational Leadership course that emphasized leadership, and collaboration. Luckily, The Will to Lead and The Skill to Teach by Muhammad & Sharroky and Learning by Doing: A Handbook for Professional Learning Communities atWork by DuFour, Duford, Eaker, Many & Mattos were required yet interesting reads for the course. Click book covers for my thoughts and takeaways from each book.
