To encourage teacher leadership, be sure to do the following:
• Value and respect the role and work of teacher leaders.
• Embrace change and allow data-driven, research-based risk taking.
• Provide affirmation for teachers’ leadership tasks.
• Promote and facilitate collaboration.
• Provide technical support for teacher leaders.
• Empower teachers in their leadership tasks.
• Involve faculty in decision making.
And be careful not to do the following:
• Withhold, control, or limit power from teachers who are involved in decision making
appropriate to their experience, knowledge, and expertise.
• Devalue the work and efforts made by teacher leaders.
• Place teachers in isolated rather than in collaborative situations.
• Focus on micromanaging the details instead of providing the big picture and supporting
the larger goal.
About Me
- Education For All
- I am creative, outgoing and love nature. I am at the top of it all and I know who got me there. My daily Prayer to the Most High God is-- "Oh that Thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that Thine hand might be with me, and that Thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me!"
