Still Standing, Still Leading: What Great Leaders Practice Every Day LIMITED
Tuesday June 17, 2025 10:00am - 10:50am CDT
What does it take to keep leading with heart, focus, and fire—day after day? In the demanding world of education, staying grounded, energized, and authentic isn’t just a bonus—it’s necessary. This session allows school leaders to pause, reflect, and realign with what matters most.
We’ll explore six essential qualities that help leaders stay fresh, resilient, and deeply connected to their purpose:
  • Gratitude that shifts perspective,
  • Service-mindedness that inspires trust,
  • Growth mindset that fuels possibility,
  • Clear communication that builds clarity,
  • Creative thinking that opens new doors, and
  • Priority setting that protects your time and energy.
Together, we’ll explore real-world practices—not theories—that will help you lead with intention, navigate challenges with confidence, and show up each day with presence and purpose. Come reset your compass, refill your tank, and remind yourself why your leadership matters.

Are Your Teams Functional or Dysfunctional? How do you know? LIMITED
Wednesday June 18, 2025 11:00am - 12:00pm CDT
Based on the books, The Five Dysfunctions of A Team, by Patrick Lencioni, and John Maxwell's 360 Degree Leader, you will discover powerful leadership practices to become a leader of influence and best practices to grow healthy, high-functioning teams in your school. Are your teams cohesive, or in disarray? Are team meetings active and  productive? Does each team member understand their role? Even the best of teams struggle at times. Building cohesive teams is difficult, but it is not complicated. 

Attendees will learn:
  • How to be a leader of influence by leading up - influencing your leader, leading across - leading colleagues and other leaders, and leading down - helping your team grow and be successful.
  • How to overcome a lack of trust among team members. 
  • Ways to help a team engage in constructive conflict.   
  • How to follow a clear, concise and practical guide to using the five dysfunctions model to improve your team. 
  • What to do to achieve the real power of teamwork. 

By developing your skills to become a 360 degree leader, you'll open opportunities for growth and development. Communicate the vision and goals for your school in a way that inspires action and focus. You will become a leader that is loved and respected.
