You're A Legend Until Lunchtime: Beyond Credentials and the Letters Behind Your- $22.99 (plus taxes)

What makes a leader? The letters behind your name, or the presence you bring into the room? In You’re a Legend Until Lunchtime, principal and educator Leroy Slanzi exposes the myth that credentials create leaders. Drawing on decades in education and his more recent work with the Lower Nicola Indian Band School, Slanzi shows that real leadership is measured in character, relationships, and courage, not titles or degrees.
Blending personal stories, Indigenous teachings, and practical insights, this book introduces a framework of ecological, cultural, compassionate, and organizational leadership. It challenges the credential-driven system and offers a new path: one where leadership heals, inspires, and transforms schools into true ecosystems of care.
For teachers, principals, and anyone who doubts they “fit the mold,” this book is both a sequel to Emotional Schools and a stand-alone call to action: Because anyone can be a legend until lunchtime. The question is... how will you lead after the lunch bell rings?
