Overview: How might we “Dare to Lead” as educators? How can we create brave and safe spaces for all of our students? This two part collaborative series will provide participants with the opportunity to reflect, examine, develop, and discuss their own unique leadership potential, as well as how ways in which we lead impacts all areas of our teaching practice. Participants will engage in a book study with their peers to discuss Brené Brown’s novel Dare to Lead, and its implications for educators in all stages of their careers. Participants will then use interactive resources, reflective questions, and collaborative activities to engage with the text and set an action plan for implementing the “Dare to Lead” philosophy in their classroom.
