Synopsis
John R. Shoup and Susan Clark Studer explore the rules and patterns that govern complex systems that, when properly understood and applied, result in more effective leadership than what is offered from traditional leadership models. Their book is designed to equip leaders with the knowledge and skills to operate successfully in complex environments at both the micro (organizational) and macro (policy) level. Leveraging Chaos offers a dynamic interpretation of educational history and reform that will equip policy makers to implement a more balanced management of the educational pendulum.

Review
Shoup and Studer detail the seven features of complex adaptive systems in a manner which serves to illuminate and clarify these systems for the reader. Complexity theory is then applied to a history of education, providing useful insights and practices supporting dynamic educational leadership and policy planning. (Susan Rainey, Ed.D., Superintendent, retired. Riverside Unified School District, California (1998-2008) and Charter Oak Unified School District, Cali)
