"Arzonetti-Hite and Donohoo continue to develop the power and specificity of collective efficacy in their new book about how to lead and build efficacy for equity. Their model is 'simplexity' itself. Five big concepts are featured: goal consensus, empowered teachers, cohesive teacher knowledge, supportive leadership, and embedded reflective practices. In each case the authors elaborate on beliefs, consensus, and cohesion. For each of the five big concepts they supply clear examples (vignettes) and evidence of impact. Collective efficacy is a compelling concept that cuts through the intricacies of improvement. An inspiring book that will motivate you to take action from the first to the last chapter."

"If you want your building to become a warm and welcoming place with a caring staff where all children become lifelong learners, you want to read this book! Collective efficacy will positively impact and transform your school. It will help close your achievement gap, make your children feel safe, and loved."

"Dr. Arzonetti-Hite and Dr. Donohoo's Leading Collective Efficacy: Powerful Stories of Achievement and Equity provides a pragmatic approach to creating a framework as schools work to foster collective teacher efficacy. The vignettes are relatable and the reflective questions posed throughout help guide leaders as they work to initiate systemic change. If you're looking to provide structures that support teachers to engage in collaborative cycles of inquiry, this book is a great place to start. I look forward to sharing this book with my colleagues as we work to move 'from a focus on individual accountability to collective impact.'"

"Rarely do you find a book that readily addresses the needs of so many departments across education. Leading Collective Efficacy: Powerful Stories of Achievement and Equity should be within arm’s reach of every school teacher, coach, teaching union, principal, inspector and district administrator. Arzonetti-Hite and Donohoo have brought us a book that is completely congruent with Bandura’s Collective Efficacy. They unpack the theory and underpinnings of Collective Teacher Efficacy (CTE) and then bring them to life with case studies demonstrating mastery experiences and vicarious experiences. The result is that the reader feels emboldened to bring this to bear on their own context, whether at national or district level or within their own school. They resource the reader with a range of processes that can be readily utilized within schools and across districts to build CTE. The generosity of the educators who have honestly shared their journeys in this book is commendable and is a reflection of the standing of, and trust in Arzonetti-Hite and Donohoo in education leadership."

"Empowering teachers is something many leaders talk about but not enough put it into action. In Leading Collective Efficacy: Powerful Stories of Achievement and Equity, Arzonetti-Hite and Donohoo provide example after example of schools that are moving beyond talk and putting their collective efforts into impactful action."

"An understanding of the conditions necessary to increase the likelihood that CTE will take root in an organization has been known for a decade. In this book, Drs. Arzonetti-Hite and Donohoo provide specific protocols and designs to apply collective efficacy in a school or district setting. By using case studies and exemplars, they outline specific ways in which collective efficacy has been directly implemented across different educational settings thereby bringing new understandings for ways it might be realized in other places."

"This book is a great read! As a leader and researcher, this book is backed by validated research and develops upon each enabling condition of collective efficacy through the experiences of educators!"
