Remember #movemeon, the crowdsourced book with tips for teachers that was such a success last year? Well, there’s a new one for leaders, being headed-up by @tombarrett and @stuartridout. The aim is similar – to create a book that collects wisdom for leaders new to their position.
You can contribute simply by including the hashtag #newleaders in a tweet. They are collated at:

Thoughts?
