Post-pandemic your priority list is long and growing longer:
- Close learning gaps
- Retain teachers & staff
- Manage stress & mental-health concerns
- Navigate politics & disappearing budgets
- End chronic absenteeism
- Ensure safer schools & learning environments
- Re-engage & build trust with parents & families
While some of these challenges are familiar, others are entirely new. In either case, they are complex, often systemic, and require a different way of thinking and set of skills to fundamentally alter the way that school organizations function to rise to the diverse and ever-changing needs of students and communities at large.
Produced through a strategic partnership between The Center for Model Schools, a division of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and RocketPD, this guide on adaptive leadership was created to help your team employ a framework for adaptive leadership to tackle big challenges without straightforward solutions.
You’ll learn:
- The difference between adaptive & technical leadership
- A sample framework for adaptive leadership in K-12 schools
- Practical ideas & resources to adopt an adaptive mindset
We hope you find the content, resources and stories featured as part of this resource useful as you look to navigate change in your school or district this year.
