About this Resource
Why is this topic important?
Today’s school leaders (superintendent, principals, assistant principals, teachers, staff) make an average of 500 decisions that affect millions of lives daily. These decisions are coupled with developing partnerships and a host of other undertakings that include interactions with various stakeholders, leadership observations, IEP meetings, disciplinary referrals, data meetings, parent meetings, etc. Leaders are expected to inspire a shared mission and vision, and create a common understanding in environments where many performance gaps exist, when failure is often the order of the day. Empowering these educators with proven evidence-based strategies is a potential solution to the expected failure.
