While much attention has been given to the call for increased flexibility; to changing the governing structures of traditional public schools and to the impact of student performance; less attention has been paid to the challenges that may be faced by leaders in schools of choice who are charged with leading with greater autonomy in exchange for increased accountability and improving student achievement (Elmore, 2000). Therefore, the purpose of the study was to explore a group of charter school leaders' experiences as administrators in traditional public school settings and their ongoing efforts to lead with more autonomy and increased accountability as the leaders of start-up charter schools to determine how the shift in organizational structure and their experiences in both environments may influence a leader's ability to lead.

520 $a The seven participants in this study were start-up school principals who previously served as principals of traditional public schools. Four of the principals were from the state of Georgia and three were principals in the state of Michigan. Fourteen themes were identified that describe the perception of the start-up charter school principal's of their experiences as principals in traditional public schools and their continuing efforts to lead as charter school principals. Finally, after the relationships of the codes were established a core phenomenon was identified, the lack of entrepreneurial readiness. The results of this study indicate a need for authorizers to improve their ability to evaluate a founders' experience and entrepreneurial readiness. In addition, schools of education should include more curriculum specific to opening and operating a charter school.
