Elevating Personal Growth for School Impact – Action Steps to Build Mindsets, Skill sets for a Healthy Professional School Culture

This is a 2.5hr Deep Dive Workshop

In today’s ever-evolving educational landscape, sustainable school improvement goes beyond systems and strategies—it begins with people. This deep dive workshop was co-designed with educational and communications consultant, Jennifer Abrams. We wanted to create a learning experience inviting leaders to explore how we can name, develop, and prioritize educators’ social, emotional, and cognitive mindsets and skill sets in order to deepen individual and collective impact.

Rooted in your school’s existing frameworks and routines, this interactive session is not about adding more to anyone’s plate—it’s about seeing and experiencing what’s already there with new eyes. Through practical reflection, discussion and application, you’ll see how to amplify, highlight, and develop psychologically mature and cognitively capable adults. The goal is to create a healthy, positive and professional culture we all want to work within. Developing oneself to support the development of others.

Key Takeaways:

• A sharpened sense of the importance of naming and developing adults’ personal growth as the foundation to support a school mission, vision, and values.
• A clearer understanding of key human skills and mindsets and their role in creating a healthy, professional, adult learning community.
• Insights into how these the mindsets and skillsets are already living within your current structures
• Tools to move from mindset and skills to action—back in your own school context
