Intensive 2 – Imagine the Possibilities: Finding Our Way As Institutional Leaders
Building With, Not For: Creating A Culture of Collaboration to Meet Careholder Needs.
Careholders include all the people in our learning community who are invested in, participate in, and care about the education context we lead. In this intensive, we will look closely at the lives and experiences of the people we serve, our careholders, to determine where we successfully implement culture-sustaining practices and where we have opportunities to refine our practices and organizational structures to intentionally build a collaborative culture. The learning will incorporate elements of strategic design, leadership, and creating a collaborative learning culture.
This intensive is ideal for educators coming in geographic or regional groups and want to use the time to plan collaboratively OR for individuals who are looking for an opportunity to assess their current practices and plan and design for the future.
