The complex demands of current educational reform initiatives have been articulated in national and state reports detailing the changing conditions of schools and provide compelling evidence for the necessity of new abilities and sensibilities at all levels of the profession (DarlingHammond, LaPointe, Meyerson, Orr, & Cohen, 2007; Leithwood, Seashore Louis, Anderson & Wahlstrom, 2004; Pont, Nusche, & Moorman, 2008) . In response, states have recognized that they bear responsibility to design and nurture the pipeline through which future educational leaders will emerge. This research attempts to describe some of the challenges faced in one state (Minnesota) by listening to the voices of practitioners and stakeholders, and by exploring their understandings of the education workplace. In this manuscript, we utilize our narrative inquiry into principals and other stakeholder perspectives to articulate the experiences of school leaders at a time of new curricular requirements, increasing diversity, and greater demands for accountability and to provide recommendations for a coherently designed pathway for school leadership.  \nOur research and report on principal preparation and development in Minnesota challenges educational leaders to move away from a command-and-control approach. We articulate principal pipeline policies that emphasize responsibility for stewardship and transformative experiences associated with inquiry into human-centered systems. The experiences described foster recognition of the need for individual and collective learning through collaborative processes that include meaningful experiences that build a professional community of learners (Danzig, 2009; Spillane & Seashore Louis, 2002) . The development of professional communities in schools creates the foundation for transformative experiences and systemic change. Spillane and Seashore Louis (2002) argue that one factor in creating a community of learners is social trust, which provides a“foundation on which collaboration, reflective dialogue, and deprivatization of practice can occur”(p. 94) . In a community of learners, no single person is expected to master everything. The entire school or institution, rather than a single person, works to build what might be described as collective and collaborative expertise.  \nMethods  \nSpecifically, this article reports on research which examined four locations along the career continuum of school ","cbCainRwjvN2kHv8","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainRwjvN2kHv8","pdf",242220,13,"English","# Introduction\n# Methods","[{\"question\":\"What is the manuscript’s main aim regarding principal pipeline policies?\",\"answer\":\"It aims to move beyond a command-and-control approach and promote policies that emphasize stewardship, inquiry, and transformative experiences through learning communities.\"}]","Pathways for Performance - Recruitment and Selection, University Preparation, Licensure, and Professional Development for School Principals | PDF",1792093358,33]
