Adaptive Leadership Residency
Are you looking to promote a culture of ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement?
Are you ready to empower your teams by providing a clear vision and goals, while encouraging collaboration, communication, and transparency?
In today's rapidly evolving educational landscape, staying ahead of the curve requires more than just a strategic plan—it demands agility, adaptability, and a healthy dose of FLOW. That's where our Adaptive Leader workshop series comes in. By sending your team to participate, you're not just investing in a workshop, you're investing in the future success of your school.
​
Our immersive hands-on training series is designed for leaders and administrators who want to upskill their leadership approach and promote the evolution of an adaptive educational system. Throughout three engaging sessions, participants will delve into the triad of adaptive leadership methodologies that transform their work.
ValueFLOW Mapping – Leadership teams will learn how to visualize value streams and business processes, identifying the people, work, and tools that make up the value delivery systems in their schools. Teams will create a model to visualize a ValueFLOW system that is unique to their schools and use it to discover bottlenecks, reduce waste, and streamline the flow of value (e.g. admission processes, onboarding processes, etc.).
​
StrategyFLOW – Practice the arts of vision casting, strategic planning and the transition to tactical delivery of a strategic plan. Develop the competencies to create strategic and tactical roadmaps that align with your institution's mission and values, ensuring clear paths to success and whole-organization alignment.
​
Nested WorkFLOW – Explore the power of Nested WorkFLOW, an adaptive LeanAgile work management methodology that promotes communication and alignment among teams and team-work, encourages autonomy, and values the benefits of a WorkFLOW visual system in fostering high trust/low touch administration teams and unburdening of the cognitive load common in the educational leadership space.
The series includes the following L-EAF Certified Learning Experiences
Participating in our residency will allow your team to nurture a culture of continuous improvement, where feedback is encouraged, successes are celebrated, and change is embraced. In essence, you'll discover how to do less, slow down, and get more done—all while keeping your culture well fed.
