Career satisfaction is central to leading a happy, healthy and effective school, but recognising the positive aspects of school leadership can be difficult at a time of extreme pressure, high accountability, constant change and seemingly impossible demands. Riding the Waves offers practical strategies, advice, reflective questions and activities for developing the fulfilling aspects of school leadership to carry school leaders through these challenging times. James Hilton explores how school leaders can enhance their mental health and wellbeing and their work-life balance by building effective relationships, nurturing talent, celebrating achievements, feeling in control and, importantly, taking a break.
With a foreword by Mary Myatt and interviews with a number of education experts, this book is a must-read for all current and aspiring school leaders who wish to thrive in their careers and build a happier and healthier school environment for the benefit of teachers, pupils, parents and the wider school community.

«This book is so refreshing! Grounded in humanity, humility and honesty, it offers an invaluable guide for school leaders to help them thrive in their roles – and help those around them thrive too. James’s regular anecdotes, from his losses to his mistakes to his triumphs, combined with the invaluable input of an array of superb school leaders make this a must-read for anyone in – or aspiring to – school leadership.»
Dr Emma Kell, Author of 'How to Survive in Teaching'
«Reading James Hilton’s book is like sitting with a good friend and having a brew. Riding the Waves is a book of proactivity, reflection, resilience and leadership. What I love about it is James’s openness with his own leadership journey coupled with useful interviews and case studies. I feel it’s an essential read for those aspiring to lead as well as those already leading. We all have so much to learn from each other.»

«This is a great book for aspiring or current school leaders. Whether you are considering pushing a boat out or riding the waves of headship, you will gain valuable wisdom and insight in steering and steadying the ship. This book will definitely be on my shelf as a navigation tool to help me reflect and focus on where I wish to take my school in the future.»
