Building LeadersHaving worked on strong leadership teams for the past 3 years, first as part of ELJHS's Diamond team, as part of the Technology Integration Leadership team, as Learning Coach and being part of the Diamond teams at two successful schools. In all of these highly skilled leadership teams, we worked together to mine and support teachers and staff with the school for opportunities for leadership.
The strength of the team is only amplified by building of the individual members. Knowing that you can depend on your team members, elevating them and developing their skills is the sign of a good leader. My best experience may be as mentee under Greg Esteves and Mark McWhinnie. Both of my leaders spent considerable time guiding me, supporting me and providing me opportunities to grow my leadership skills. |
