Drive Improvement Through Leading and Learning
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Continuous improvement is grounded in learning. In fact, continuous improvement necessitates a mindset that focuses on continued learning and growth and that acknowledges that there is always something new to discover. Through this learning, growth occurs, and growth facilitates improvement. As Brian Alaback, Director of Professional Learning for Escambia County Public Schools in Florida so aptly shares, “if I don't have the mindset of continuing to grow and learn, then it doesn't matter what I’m trying to improve.”
Listen as Dr. Janet Pilcher and Mr. Alaback
- consider how leaders model and lead the way in growing and learning to drive improvement,
- explore why investing in your own learning and the learning of others is crucial to continuous improvement, and
- discuss tactics for supporting improvement through learning.
