In education, we have had a tendency to underestimate and/or fail to grasp the vital importance of leadership.  For years, we have ushered strong teachers out of the classroom and into administrative positions with little or no leadership support or development.  In Leadership 3.0’s latest webinar, presenter David Culberhouse discusses the importance of leadership development in education, but also how social media and blogging can serve as powerful collaborative tools to enhance our ongoing development and capacity as leaders. He explored the importance of leadership development for today’s educators and the four key aspects of leadership to cultivate.  He shared how the current collaborative platforms that social media and technology provide allow opportunities to not only increase our learning opportunities in exponential ways but also how they can disrupt our mindset of what we thought was available or possible. Watch the webinar below to see how our leadership and learning can be enhanced and extended through technology and social media.
