Produktbeschreibung

p>"If we can get adult development right, we can change the world!" Adult development . . . in schools? Yes. In fact, understanding and sharing ideas--and implementing practices--that help adults explore experiences and assumptions is a powerful driver of school change. Eleanor Drago-Severson and Jessica Blum-DeStefano share expertise that has evolved from their many decades of research and work with educators and show you how to * Deepen your understanding of adult development and its role in systemic and schoolwide change and educational improvement, * Connect theory to practice with developmentally oriented structures and strategies that enhance collaboration, communication, and feedback, * Support individual and, organizational growth with a differentiated approach to leadership and capacity building, and * Build trust, capacity, collegiality, and sustainability with developmental practices that meet adult needs. Whether you work in a school, district, university, educational institution, or other learning organization, you'll learn how to infuse leadership, collaboration, communication, and capacity building with a deep understanding of individuals' experiences and capacities--and how they influence our day-to-day work. Leading Change Together explains how you and other adult learners can effect tremendous change in schools and systems.

Eleanor (Ellie) Drago-Severson is Professor of Education Leadership and Adult Learning and Leadership, and director of the PhD Program in Educational Leadership, at Teachers College, Columbia University. A developmental psychologist, Ellie teaches, conducts research, and consults to school and district leaders, teacher leaders, and organizations on professional and personal growth and learning; leadership that supports principal, teacher, school, and leadership development; and coaching and developmental mentoring in K-12 schools, university settings, and other for-profit and nonprofit organizations. She is also an internationally certified Immunity to Change Coach who works with leaders to build internal capacity, improve performance, and help them achieve their goals. Her work is inspired by the idea that schools, districts, and organizations must be places where adults and those entrusted to them can grow.

She teaches aspiring and practicing principals in Columbia University's Summer Principals Academy, and aspiring superintendents in the Urban Education Leaders Program.

She earned her BA from C.W. Post, Long Island University, and her master's and doctorate from Harvard's Graduate School of Education, where she was awarded a postdoctoral fellowship from 1998 to 2001.
