Summary:"Collective Leader Efficacy will help leaders build confidence within their collective leadership teams so all members of the team can learn and grow as instructional leaders and have a deeper impact on student learning. To imbue instructional leadership teams with collective leader efficacy, eight contributors are presented: mindset, wellbeing, context beliefs, working conditions, professional learning and development, organizational commitment, the skills to work in collectives, and the confidence to work in collectives. This book, and the research within it, is about improving beliefs and actions and then understanding how they intersect to create more functional, and much more effective, school leadership teams"--
Description
Summary:

Not just another book on leadership teams

For school teams to succeed, they need leadership, independence, meaningful collaboration, and a shared conviction that they have real power to enact actual change. Educators know this, but they often lack an inquiry process that creates a community of learning leaders that is capable of deep collective impact on student learning and wellbeing.

In this research-based, hands-on guidebook, school leadership coach Peter DeWitt introduces eight key drivers to integrating teacher and leader efficacy (mindset, well-being, context beliefs, working conditions, professional learning, organizational commitment, skills, and confidence) and harnesses it with a process to help you focus on the nuances of instruction and teaming to develop powerful collective leader efficacy.

Readers will find:

Activities and strategies designed to build collective efficacy in instructional teams and foster leadership and interdependence among teachers Theories of action to focus team efforts and how to create your own Tools, reflection prompts, and guiding questions to help you define your desired outcomes and the steps necessary to get there

With this book and the research within it, your instructional leadership team will develop a learner's mindset, a collective commitment to improvement, and a shared process for inquiry and continual growth so you can nurture greater impact together.
