The basic rationale for such organizations is that in situations of rapid change only those that are flexible, adaptive and productive will excel. For this to happen, it is argued, organizations need to ‘discover how to tap people’s commitment and capacity to learn at all levels’ (ibid.: 4).While all people have the capacity to learn, the structures in which they have to function are often not conducive to reflection and engagement. Furthermore, people may lack the tools and guiding ideas to make sense of the situations they face. Organizations that are continually expanding their capacity to create their future require a fundamental shift of mind among their members.

Personal mastery. ‘Organizations learn only through individuals who learn. Individual learning does not guarantee organizational learning. But without it no organizational learning occurs’ (Senge 1990: 139). Personal mastery is the discipline of continually clarifying and deepening our personal vision, of focusing our energies, of developing patience, and of seeing reality objectively’ (ibid.: 7). It goes beyond competence and skills, although it involves them. It goes beyond spiritual opening, although it involves spiritual growth (ibid.: 141). Mastery is seen as a special kind of proficiency. It is not about dominance, but rather about calling. Vision is vocation rather than simply just a good idea.

But personal mastery is not something you possess. It is a process. It is a lifelong discipline. People with a high level of personal mastery are acutely aware of their ignorance, their incompetence, their growth areas. And they are deeply self-confident. Paradoxical? Only for those who do not see the ‘journey is the reward’. (Senge 1990: 142)

There are any varying styles that are appropriate in different situations or with diverse groups of people. There are also many different positions in education that require leadership.

a school leader helps teachers and students achieve and perform to the best of their abilities.

Leadership has a significant impact on the school because the style sets the tone for the entire building

Teacher: We Are Pawns in Someone Else’s Game

Schools market a product. It’s called education. It’s called reading and writing and math and social studies and science. It is called college and career readiness. But most importantly, it’s called hope and dreams. It is the future we market.

Or at least we used to. Nowadays, we’re forced to market high test scores and low suspension rates.

here’s a mismatch between the logic of participatory media and the still-reigning 20th-century model of management and organizations, with its emphasis on linear processes and control. Social media encourages horizontal collaboration

The dynamics of social media amplify the need for qualities that have long been a staple of effective leadership

Leaders need to excel at cocreation and collaboration—the currencies of the social-media world

A learning facilitator offers professional development opportunities to colleagues, keeping learning relevant and focused on what is important in their classrooms.

Education technology companies need educators.

you may also be missing some knowledge and skills that would help you add value to an education technology company,

Being able to translate between education needs and technological needs is crucial.

As we continue to look at teachers, students, and learning becoming more “innovative”, it is important that leadership changes.  As administrators often set the tone for their district or their building, if they are saying the same, it is not likely that things are going to change in the classroom.  Leadership needs to not only “think” different, but they need to “act” different.

 Innovative leaders help people continuously grow with small steps that build both confidence and competence, so they are more willing to become more innovative themselves.

“If I was a teacher in this school, what would I expect of my principal?”  That trickled down to trying to empathize with being a student in the school, and a parent in the community.

This toolkit provides perspectives and recommendations for educators and school and district leaders who are implementing these programs and in

cludes links to research and reports about policies and practice.

The toolkit includes: BYOD for Teachers
