Wallace narrates a story about real-time school leadership that captures the frustration and passion, the caring and mentoring of a developing servant leader. The complex environment of K-12 schools described in this account is realistic, and the strategies for real change in personal development of a so-so administrator into a servant leader hold promise for school administrators and leader mentors.
