In this professional development workshop we share insights to appreciate the importance of cultivating intentional relationships and techniques for fostering a healthy school culture. This training activates the attitudes and behaviors that most contribute to your goals for student growth and school growth.
Active participation by Faculty in building engagement is a key advantage for the most successful schools. They know how to equip, mobilize, and motivate their constituents to collaboratively achieve the goals.
In our Building Faculty Engagement Workshop, we share the why every employee of the school is an ambassador for the school every day. Having an outside, expert voice affirm the importance of an engaged, unified team reinforces your key leadership messages.
This is a two to three hour professional development experience that will advance the engaged culture that you want for your school.
"The most important thing for faculty to hear and understand is that every teacher (and staff member) is in the admission/advancement department. They play the leading, most critical role everyday in the decision of our current parents to re-enroll and they have already begun to make that decision for next year. Even as a teacher myself, I never heard that and it has changed the way I look at each teacher."
"The way in which you presented Building Faculty Engagement was very appealing. While you were telling the teachers what they need to be and do, you did so by encouraging and affirming them. Your comments called them to step up even more than they are now. I think the teachers came away understanding just how much they are valued as professionals and as part of the team."
"As the principal, I was encouraged by the way I saw the teachers remain interested throughout the session. I believe they have a new way of looking at their role as part of the larger team. No matter how vast our programs may become or what type of facility we may live in, student engagement and parent satisfaction lie largely with the teacher and that does not depend on programs or facility."
FACULTY
"It was good to talk about the school as a whole program. It helped to understand the bigger picture and to see how each person/department plays a role in enrollment."
"We are all responsible for bringing in new students, not just Admissions."
"I get it--Teach with the future in mind."
"This felt good, a shot in the arm!"
"It placed a great weight of responsibility on me as a teacher, in a good way. I have a greater understanding of the importance of my role to the program as a whole and specifically for retaining current students."
