About this Event
This ongoing program will provide new leaders and educators growing into leadership roles with the tools and strategies to lead more successfully. With a focus on fostering our own personal growth as well as furthering our responsibility for the growth and development of others, participants will identify and hone the skills and habits of effective leaders, including locating one’s authentic leadership style, leveraging position within an institution, fostering high functioning teams, making informed decisions, navigating change and conflict, and creating and maintaining inclusive school environments in predominantly white institutions. In addition to examining best practices and research in the field, we will experiment with and workshop implementation strategies, share and collaborate around the specific and pressing issues we face in our schools, and build a strong and supportive network of relationships to rely upon in the future.
Key Topics Will Include:
- Identifying and exploring one’s leadership style
- Fostering growth and development (in self and others)
- Creating and maintaining inclusive environments
- Fostering high functioning teams
- Decision making - using data and processes
- Navigating conflict- difficult conversations
- Culture and change management
AUDIENCE
This program is designed for aspiring and current educational leaders in mid-level leadership positions such as teacher leaders, deans, department chairs, and program directors. Our goal is to help participants thrive in their current positions and to build collaborative partnerships with a cohort of school leaders in similar roles and career trajectories.
