How You Create A Legendary School Starting Tomorrow
What if you built the school of your dreams? What if your culture was so high-performing, educators from around the world came to visit to observe your day-to-day operations? What if the school ran so smoothly you could focus on THE BIGGER PICTURE and spend your time innovating in education instead of putting out fires?
This doesn’t have to be a “What if” scenario. This could be your reality …
But to create a legendary school and to make this ideal vision of school your reality, you’ll have to start doing things differently right now.
It is the goal of this book to show you how to do just that. It is your roadmap for creating a legendary school.

The BLBS podcast has been sponsored by influential educational organizations like: Organized Binder; SMART Technologies; ABL Schools; TeachFX; and the Certificate of School Management and Leadership at the HARVARD Graduate Schools of Education and Business. Daniel has interviewed 100s of world-class leaders on his podcast, and with the insights from these interviews along with his own experience leading local schools, Daniel presents his roadmap to create a legendary school.
In this book, you’ll learn:
★ How to unleash the creativity inherently found in every classroom!
★ The EXACT mindset tactics to help you lead in an increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous reality.

Editorial Reviews
Review
--Dr. Justin Baeder, author of Now We're Talking! 21 Days to High-Performance Instructional Leadership and director of The Principal Center
Danny's upbeat voice comes through loud and clear in this easy to read, supportive book full of strategies and tips for how to become a better leader. The text is straightforward, the author's voice is authentic and down to earth, and the ideas are truly useful. Thank you, Danny, for helping us once again to become better leaders for our schools and our systems.
--Jennifer Abrams, consultant, speaker, and author of Having Hard Conversations
There's a reason people write manifestos, and The Better Leaders Better Schools Roadmap is an absolute throw down of what we all should be doing in our schools. Danny Bauer pulls on his almost two decades of experience as an educator and lays out the framework with a call to action for anyone working with kids. This book is a must-read, and I know will be a treasured gem for years to come!
--Adam Welcome, author, speaker, educator, family, marathoner
In The Better Leaders Better Schools Roadmap, Danny gives educators a clear road map toward success in schools as each section provides practical steps to engage in the work of leadership. He links relevant books, research, and voices from the field via his popular Better Leader Better Schools podcast so you can take the learning even further. From developing a culture to setting boundaries, Danny puts his heart and soul into each word--a must-read for all educators.
--Jessica Cabeen, nationally distinguished principal, author of Hacking Early Learning, co-author of Balance Like a Pirate
Written by one of the finest educational leaders I know, it is both a personal manifesto about what schools are for and a professional resource for anyone interested in becoming a better leader or improving the education profession. This unique book is well written and makes a compelling case not only for why we must make changes in our schools, but also what and how to change. Each chapter is an inspirational call to action that closes with specific and helpful "Next Steps" readers can take to make a difference in their own personal and professional growth as well as the students and colleagues they serve.
--Jeffrey Zoul, EdD, author, speaker, leadership coach, and president of ConnectEDD

If you are familiar with Bauer’s successful podcasts, you will be pleased to find that his tone in the book is identical to his tone on the podcasts. He consistently gives the reader and listener his truest self, flaws and all, in an honest and conversational tone. His approachability drew me to the book, and his fresh ideas left me wanting more.
There have been few authors whose works have shaped who I am as a leader - Bambrick-Santoyo, Lemov. Bauer is a definite addition to this short list. This book challenged who I am as a leader, and left me wanting to be the best leader I can be. An inspiring read for new leaders, veteran leaders, and inspiring readers alike.
What you'll find in this easy read is challenging and inspirational.
The average school principal will find a very different mindset presented by Bauer. That principal will be called to think about his/her current practices and reflect on the "why" of it all.
For other school principals, you'll find comfort in the transparency Bauer provides. He shares the mistakes he's made, and even ways he could have prevented them. You'll be pushed in your thinking to become a more intentional, goal-oriented administrator for both your staff and your students.
Bauer says it all in the subtitle: small ideas that lead to BIG IMPACT. Take your time in reading this. Let it soak into you. Re-read it before every school year. And then write your own roadmap!
One of my biggest takeaways from reading this book was his emphasis on ensuring teacher professional development is meaningful. Danny explains how at his school, they focused on letting teachers chose the PD that they participated in. In return, the teachers were responsible for sharing what they learned to school staff.

This book, Daniel will share with you the methods, strategies, and processes of modern teaching. What I learned the most from this book is teaching should be modern, fun, exciting, with one main goal which is to enhance your students self-development in all areas; in and out the classroom. The only way you can teach others is by developing yourself on how you become a better person/teacher by providing value to the people you are teaching, and as result, you will be a better leader!
Thank you, Daniel, for writing this book and for being a brilliant mentor, by teaching me the core principles of being a better teacher and better leader!

Thank you, Daniel, for writing this book and for being a brilliant mentor, by teaching me the core principles of being a better teacher and better leader!


While reading his book, I realized that some of it I already knew (confirmation), some of it I hadn't even thought of (realization), and that some of it brought me back down to earth (affirmation). But overall, it inspired me to want to do more, to want to be more: to be a better leader.
Danny's book does indeed provide a roadmap for any person looking for ways to improve upon their leadership skills. I will definitely be recommending The Better Leaders Better Schools Roadmap to all leaders.
Thanks Danny!
