How do you plan to release the current leadership team members with compassion, yet empower and restore hope for the new leadership team in a way that promotes personal and professional growth?

 

Read the following case study to inform this assignment.

You are a first-year principal meeting with your leadership team for the first time. The team consists of an equal representation from each grade level, special areas, content areas, and special education. Historically, these leadership team positions have been hard to fill. There are long-serving teachers who are guarded and resistant to change, as well as less experienced, enthusiastic teachers who have served one year on the team.

There is a nominal stipend tied to these leadership positions. It has been shared with you that the stipend does not serve as a motivator to apply for the job. There are no specific protocols, criteria, or expectations tied to these positions. Additionally, the assistant principal has shared with you that the majority of the leadership team members currently in place would prefer not to serve on the team.

In 750-1,000 words, write a narrative that contains an action plan for identifying and empowering instructional leaders who will sustain a culture of collaboration, trust, learning, and high expectations.

  • What should you consider when determining the next steps?
  • What does the timeline look like?

Part 2: Identify the Larger Issues

Address the following questions to analyze the contextual issues present in the situation:

  • How do you intend to honor the work done by the previous year’s leadership team?
  • What are the potentially positive and negative outcomes of doing nothing?
  • What are the potentially positive and negative outcomes of taking action?
  • What additional information do you need as part of your decision-making process?

Part 3: Create an Action Plan

Use the following questions to guide you in describing what approach you will take to identify and empower instructional leaders:

  • What is your plan to create a culture that encourages teachers to take on leadership roles and responsibilities?
  • What is your plan moving forward relative to the selection process? Include 3-5 action steps.
  • How will you include the critical stakeholders in the decision-making process?
  • What challenges do you anticipate when creating a leadership team? How do you plan to address those challenges?
  • How will you establish or gain teacher support in your efforts?
  • How do you plan to release the current leadership team members with compassion, yet empower and restore hope for the new leadership team in a way that promotes personal and professional growth?

Support your analysis and plan with 2-3 scholarly resources.

How does analyzing the relationship between history, culture, and popular culture have an influence on your discipline of study or chosen profession?

 

Over the past two weeks, our readings and discussions have been focused on establishing a baseline for understanding popular culture. In this module, we’ll begin our tour through the four lenses by beginning with history. As we dive into the four lenses, keep in mind that each lens is framed as a way of seeing the world around us and is not necessarily tied to the associated discipline. So, looking through the historical lens isn’t just about History Channel documentaries—it’s also about how you use the lens to understand the past and the present.

Each discussion is meant to be a collaborative space for conversation in which to process the concepts within the course. To ensure an interesting and respectful discussion, you are encouraged to think creatively about your initial posts and build upon the points made by your peers. Discussing challenges that face our world often means investigating opinions and ideas different from your own. Remember to remain thoughtful and respectful towards your peers and instructor in your discussion post and replies. It is also important to review the module resources and read the prompts in their entirety before participating in the discussion.
Create one initial post and follow up with at least two response posts.

For your initial post, address the following:

  1. Explore a contemporary area of popular culture by discussing how it came into existence.
    1. For instance, if you were discussing comic books, you could discuss how newspapers in the late 1800s began printing comic strips, which became popular enough that comic books emerged from this practice.
  2. How does looking through the history lens enhance your understanding of popular culture?
  3. How does analyzing the relationship between history, culture, and popular culture have an influence on your discipline of study or chosen profession?
