Leadership

Leaders at all levels have the capacity to champion the shift from the current reality to the intended outcome(s).

What is it?

Leadership capacity is developed through a clear delineation of leadership roles, responsibilities and opportunities. Effective leadership focuses on continuous instructional improvement and builds mechanisms for collaboration between current and future leaders, as well as among all stakeholders, including parents. Effective leaders champion capacity building and commitment to improvement and growth.

Why is it important?

A plan to develop leadership capacity among all stakeholder groups supports and sustains implementation and encourages career-long and life-long personal and professional growth.

    • Clearly delineate leadership roles and responsibilities
    • Identify future leadership opportunities

    • Identify champions to build capacity and commitment
    • Describe mechanisms for collaboration among current and future leaders.
