Industry Reviews
"The budget process in The Essentials of Finance for School Leaders is multifaceted and multi-phased. The process evolves and is refined each step of the way; ensuring due diligence in problem analysis, attention to details in solution generation, and keen prioritization of resource allocation. Sound budgeting is directly connected to education planning and policy- all focused on student performance and outcomes. Not every good idea needs to or can be implemented. It always comes back to the value add proposition. This book is a comprehensive resource that all leaders can learn from".
