Session one of this two-part edWebinar series for leaders will focus on the role of high-quality instructional materials (HQIM) in programming.
Leaders are charged with “putting it all together”: how the community teams, how time is spent, and the selection of collective tools—the three T’s. Explore how internal coherence—aligning your team’s “how”—can drive greater results and clarity in your organization. This edWebinar series is designed to help leaders align their priorities and their most pressing challenges to a problem of coherence. Specifically, you’ll learn:
- Practical strategies to align your resources and goals
- An actionable framework to strengthen internal coherence
- Tools to empower your team for greater impact
In session one, we’ll cover:
- The importance of internal coherence for leaders
- Defining internal coherence through HQIM
- Analyzing the impact of HQIM on team practices
- Interactive exercise: linking HQIM to team processes and outcomes
- A preview of session two: time allocation and team structures
Don’t let your team’s potential go untapped—join us in the journey toward results-driven leadership. This edWebinar will be of interest to K-12 school and district leaders. There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.
Stayed tuned for session two of this series.
About the Presenter
Valery Dragon, VP of Strategic Partnerships at UnboundEd, has worked for over a decade in the Washington, D.C. area as an ELL specialist, language teacher, and instructional coach before leading a PK-8 school as a principal. Both New Leaders and RELAY trained, she then transitioned to a national organization as a managing director of instructional support to focus on leadership actions and practices. In this role, Valery crafted development for leaders through targeted improvement cycles anchored in operationalizing instructional improvement plans, auditing systems, and structures through the lens of internal coherence and equity, as well as modeling and developing coaching practices anchored in content-specific pedagogy. It is Valery’s belief that fidelity to our mission will empower educators to own their input in school-based outcomes and allow them to intentionally launch their influence as change agents in hopes that their affirmed identities and leveraged leadership position them to build a strong coalition for change.
