The Shared Leadership Network met to explore the topic of Shared Leadership Structures and Reimagining Leadership Positions. THIS IS WHAT WE LEARNED: Collaborative leaders value checks and balances and want to include teachers in a wide variety of teacher leadership roles. This ensures that diverse experiences and opinions are present for all decisions. Moving away from industrial-era ideas about bosses and workers allows teams to better govern and run schools to meet the modern needs of students. Here are some examples ⬇️ ➡️ Teams divide up responsibilities and decision-making among committees, departments, grade levels, and/or teams, with each group accountable to the whole team. ➡️ Teams vote on leadership positions, including school leaders, committee leaders, and grade level teams. ➡️ Teams create structures where all teachers serve on some leadership committee, and then these groups report back to the whole team for final decisions. ➡️ Teams may embrace non-traditional duties for administrators, teachers, and students, for example, teachers taking on administrative duties and administrators teaching classes and leading advisories.

This week I've been highlighting challenges that education & nonprofit leaders face. The first challenge was increased stress + decreased well-being and the second challenge was being promoted due to technical skills and then being expected to miraculously translate that success into a leadership role. The third challenge education & nonprofit leaders face is that leadership development is a) often nonexistent or b) its theoretical & is missing chances to apply those skills in context / receive feedback. ✏ Most districts, CMOs, and nonprofits don’t have an organization-wide definition of leadership  🖍 Most districts, CMOs, and nonprofits don’t have an organization-wide, systemic approach to leadership development 🖋 Those that do end up providing development on leadership skills but don’t include ways to apply those skills in context and receive feedback 🖌 This leaves leaders relying on their technical skills only or applying recently learned leadership skills in novice ways without opportunities to receive feedback 🖊 This negatively impacts the experience of those people the leader supervises while causing the leader to question their competence / fit for the role

The role of a dean is a multifaceted one, demanding a delicate balance of listening, leading, advocating, and compromising. Navigating between faculty and administration while aligning academic goals with financial constraints can be daunting. However, resources for training and mentorship are often scarce. Emerging and seasoned leaders alike often find themselves piecing together strategies to define their professional values and enhance their skills. To support deans in addressing critical leadership issues and juggling the diverse demands of their positions, The Chronicle has compiled a valuable collection of articles. This curated content offers insights from seasoned deans, leadership experts, and consultants in higher education. It provides practical advice and strategies to help deans effectively manage their leadership challenges and navigate their roles with confidence. #Deans #HigherEducation #LeadershipChallenges #TheChronicle #ProfessionalDevelopment

Business leaders fulfill multiple roles within organizations, from setting strategic direction to managing daily operations.
