5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read for politicians, school leaders and teachers
"Professional Capital" is A Must Read book on school reforms, change of teaching and learning cultures and classroom implementation of educational policies as wished by politicians, school leaders, teachers, students and parents. It is surprisingly sharp in its critique of politicians' search for quick measurable results, and it is equally solidly founded in presenting evidence and suggestions for a sustainable development of school cultures that will guarantee continuos improvement of institutionalised learning - the idea is the professional capital of collaborative teaching and learning.

I'm the Chief Academic Officer of a small CA charter organization and this book has been really helpful for me to ground our work in Hargreaves and Fullan's deep analysis. Along with Fullan's other books, "The Principal" and "Deep Learning", it is helping us to better articulate our strategy going forward as it really resonates with our Core Pedagogical Beliefs. I appreciate the use of evidence and extensive research from the US, Canada, England, and Australia that is included in the text and footnotes. In addition, it isn't about quick fixes or silver bullets but rather based on the work of coherently building everyone's capacity in an organization support all student learning at their maximum capacity.It has changed my practice for the better.

A great read with lots of insight into equipping schools and teachers to perform highly. Well written with clear examples of principles and practices that are proven to make a difference.
5.0 out of 5 stars A must-read for administrators working in faculty professional development.
One of the truly great books on faculty professional development out there. Data-based, but as the authors themselves say, not data-driven.If you're following PISA, paying attention to the Finland-gap in education (i.e., between them and the rest of us), this is a great how-to and well worth the read all the way through. While primarily targeted towards public schools, is entirely applicable to private schools, parochial, Waldorf, etc.
5.0 out of 5 stars Professional Capital - Continuing the good work
Having recently read quite a number of articles from both Hargreaves and Fullan, dating back to the 1990's, Professional Capital built on their earlier work and extended it. It's a very easy read and educators at all levels will relate to it and will be challenged by it. It speaks directly to teachers, school and district/system leaders as well as State, National and International organisations. Professional Capital is what we've come to expect of Hargreaves and Fullan, and more!
5.0 out of 5 stars Leading the way
Professional Capital is just what teaching needs at this time--a solid look at practices and ideas that really will increase student learning. With near unanimous agreement in the failure of No Child Left Behind, the time is ripe for ideas that will truly improve education. Unfortunately, much of what passes for education reform doesn't meet the standard set by Hargreaves and Fullan in this excellent book. I highly recommend this book as a template for change in our schools.
4.0 out of 5 stars Very informative
This book provides very clearly stated introduction to the concept of professional capital and its realtion to teachers. Based on social, human, and decision all capital, professional capital is a concept that must be considered by educators as we move forward in this new era of increased accountability a great read overall.
5.0 out of 5 stars Must read for Educators and Voters
All school districts should adopt the principles that were expressed within this text. As a school administration, I will definitely adopt the portion of the text that explain why it is important to build as many relationships within the entire school community.
dignity and strength to a profession that has suffered degradation in the struggle for 'control of education' by parties far rem
Hargreaves and Fullan present a very interesting approach to reforming education that moves past current top down initiatives such as standardization and competitive accountability and advocates for the development of human, social and decisional capital. Such a reform movement promises to reinstate professional autonomy, dignity and strength to a profession that has suffered degradation in the struggle for 'control of education' by parties far removed from its best interests.
