Educators have the power to transform their classroom AND their school!  When we understand what drives us... we are able to capitalize on the potential we have to make a difference in the lives of those around us.
   
  The Power of Purpose

Why do we show up for work every day? When we understand our purpose, we realize it's more than just a pay check!  Our purpose transforms our work into passion and gives our our job meaning.

Presentations Primarily for School Leaders

   Blueprint for Awesomeness: Building a School Culture that       
  Empowers Staff and Inspires Kids

Student achievement does not occur in a vacuum.  It happens in a school where students like to learn and teachers like to work.  It happens in a school that has the right culture. Whether you're a teacher leader or a building administrator, you have the ability to shape the culture in your school. 

   Winning in the Trenches

Presentations Primarily for Teachers

   Classroom Management: The One Rule You Need to Know

How do we handle disruptive and disrespectful students?  How do we develop a climate in our classroom that is conducive to learning?  Whether you're a veteran or a rookie, everyone needs to remember this rule.

   School Leadership: It's Not Just for Principals

While the most important role for teachers is to teach the students in their classroom, they should never underestimate their potential for impacting the culture of the school. Teachers are never neutral with respect to a school's culture. They do things every day that either undermine or enhance the mission of the school. This session focuses on the ways that teachers can lead and transform the culture of a school.
