High Impact Leadership

Dr. Reeves will address the factors that matter most for effective educational leadership.  “Even when faculties, students, home environment, and socioeconomic status are the same, leaders make a profound difference for students.”  This presentation will include national and international evidence on student achievement and engagement.  There will also be opportunities for participants to engage in questions, challenges, and the sharing of success stories. 

Topics to be considered include: 

  • The latest evidence on how leaders and teachers influence student achievement 

  • The seven elements of effective leadership in education 

  • The power of focus in improving student results and teaching excellence 

  • How schools promote (and sometimes undermine) creativity and critical thinking 

  • The power of student engagement - and how schools can increase it
