Förlagets beskrivning
In Director of Excellence, educator and author Christine Kalbaugh delivers what is promised in the book's subtitle: Practical Guidance for Running a Professional, Profitable, Exceptional Child Care Program.
Based on the knowledge and wisdom of Journal of Child-Care Administration, a highly successful periodical the author founded in 1991, Director of Excellence bridges the gap between owners' and directors' expertise in education and child development, and their relative lack of experience and training in the business world.
Drawing on extensive research, visits to centers throughout the country and wide-ranging interviews with experts, including practicing owners and directors, leaders in education and business, authors, professors, attorneys and other respected authorities, the book covers a myriad of topics that must be dealt with in the management of a child care center.
Emphasis throughout the book is on practicality; on providing useable, tested, realistic ideas for running a center in an enlightened, businesslike and educationally sound manner.
Among the issues Director of Excellence addresses in detail: Finance, Inclusion, Parent Relations, Health and Safety, Staff Management, Policy and Philosophy, Program Improvement, Advertising and Promotion, Handling Serious Problems, Enhancing Leadership Skills.
Information is presented in an uncluttered, interesting format that makes it easy to read and absorb. Sentence and paragraph structure and length, headings and text effects are designed to allow the reader to easily access specific material in order to review, implement or share what has been learned.
By addressing the extremely varied and challenging responsibilities of center administrators, Director of Excellence not only provides invaluable guidance, but also inspires readers to use the book as a starting point in the continued pursuit of knowledge and excellence.
Director of Excellence is based on the philosophy of Christine Kalbaugh: "Only in enlightened, professionally-run centers are young children in group care assured of safe, healthy, nurturing environments suited to their optimal development in all areas."
This book can truly transform a child care center
