District Leadership That Works

A Balanced Leadership® approach to improving systems and innovation for student and staff success
July 17-18, 2017
Day 1: Research-based Characteristics of Effective District Leadership
Learn about the district-level leadership activities and behaviors that research shows are most connected to student and staff success, and how these leadership responsibilities apply to the actions of superintendents, school boards, and central office staff.

Day 2: What Matters Most from a High-Reliability System Perspective
Learn about principles of high-reliability systems and the actions used in healthcare, aviation, and other complex industries, and how these principles can be effectively applied to education systems. Determine the current state of your district systems and begin to map steps toward improving the quality of instruction and reducing variability in instructional quality within and among your schools.
