Stretching at Your Learning Edges

Lead by Jennifer Abrams

 

Why you need to know this now

The world and our work in education have become much more complex in the last 18 months and we have learned that we need to find a new center of gravity - a broadening of our abilities to work more effectively and humanely together. Our need for all the adults in a school to grow (up), mature, and develop is ever more critical for our teamwork, our communications with families, and for ourselves.  As we come back for the upcoming school year how can we develop ourselves to become better educators and better human beings?  In this micro-lesson, Jennifer will share key ideas from her newest book, Stretching Your Learning Edges: Growing (Up) at Work.

What you will learn

  • ‘Connect the dots’ between collective efficacy and individual personal development.

  • Learn about how five facets of personal development can increase psychological safety and effectiveness in groups.

  • One key exercise you can take back to your teams around one of the 5 facets.
