The Assistant Principal Identity: Protecting Your Leadership Mindset, Fervor, and Authenticity

A colleague suggested I follow Principal Kafele. I have been enlightened and encouraged by his words of wisdom. Great book to have in your resource chest as a school administrator.

Kafele has done a masterful job in the Assistant Principal Identity. As a principal for 2 decades, it is evident to me that Kafele has a real authentic understanding of the very important but often neglected leadership role of the AP. He has framed the leadership role of AP in a way that is easy to understand, impactful and shines a much needed light on the position. I highly recommend this book for the seasoned and new AP, as well as principals who want to bring their leadership skills into the 21st Century.

Amazing! Excellent read, extremely informative!

Great read for anyone in education.

I am genuinely grateful for Principal Kafele’s commitment to sharing his expertise and experiences, as it has undoubtedly influenced my approach and enhanced my leadership skills. His ability to distill complex concepts into actionable steps is commendable, and I find myself continually referring back to his books for inspiration and guidance.His work has made a profound impact on my professional growth, and I am confident that it will continue to inspire and benefit countless others.

This book is amazing! It speaks on what your thought process should be as an assistant principal.

I have multiple books written by Principal Kafele, I have learned so much from him and listening to him. I adjusted my leadership style based on his teachings. I often go back and revisit things I have read, just as a refresher for myself.

Not a horrible book, but not a lot to gain. It felt very much like books you’d read in an education class at university. More fluff than substance.
