Book Description
This book outlines a practical, four-question model that school and business leaders can use to engage stakeholder feedback, determine the organization’s DNA, and establish a collective vision for improvement. Stakeholder feedback is analyzed at both the focus- and whole-group level. Results are then woven into the organizational improvement plan. Practical examples of leadership experiences in implementing the four-question model are included as well as the theory behind why these four questions are the right questions to ask. Each chapter ends with a set of reflective questions that leadership teams can utilize individually or in an organizational book study or Professional Learning Community (PLC).

Book Description
Mixed Harvest explores rural responses to the transformation of the northern United States from an agricultural society into an urban and industrial one. According to Hal S. Barron, country people from New England to North Dakota negotiated the rise of large-scale organizational society and consumer culture in ways marked by both resistance and accommodation, change and continuity. Between 1870 and 1930, communities in the rural North faced a number of challenges. Reformers and professionals sought to centralize authority and diminish local control over such important aspects of rural society as schools and roads; large-scale business corporations wielded increasing market power, to the detriment of independent family farmers; and an encroaching urban-based consumer culture threatened rural beliefs in the primacy of their local communities and the superiority of country life. But, Barron argues, by reconfiguring traditional rural values of localism, independence, republicanism, and agrarian fundamentalism, country people successfully created a distinct rural subculture. Consequently, agrarian society continued to provide a counterpoint to the dominant trends in American society well into the twentieth century.
