Part 3 Rob Stones: Elevating Educational Leadership: Strategies for Team Alignment and Self-Managed Learning

Professional Learnings NSWPPA Educational Leadership

Ever wondered how an accidental e-book author evolved into a beacon for educational leaders? Rob Stones Pioneer in Leadership Learning guides us through his publications. Rob's literary journey has paved the way for school leaders to navigate the complexities of modern education. His work transforms the mundane into the extraordinary, offering a lifeline through the 'window of certainty' to align teaching teams, and the 'leader mind equation' to continue growth post-workshop. Discover Rob's treasure trove of insights that arm educators with the necessary tools for clarity, capacity, and commitment in our latest Principal Learnings Podcast episode.
We dig into the nitty-gritty of teamwork and the collaborative spirit that's essential in any educational environment. Imagine kickstarting meetings with energy that ripples through your team—Rob introduces us to 'walk and talk', a method that revitalizes staff connections. But it's not all about techniques; we also tackle the tough stuff. The 'Mind in the Gap' concept is a critical lens on the space between ideals and the realities of leadership, a space that can either motivate or discourage. Stay tuned as we also cover the pivotal topic of teacher well-being, stressing the power educators have to script their own tales of joy and fulfillment in their roles.
Taking a leap into classroom dynamics, we analyze the choice theory and its application for creating self-managed learners, inspired by Rob's upcoming book "Teaching Students to Self-Manage in the Classroom." Imagine a classroom where learners navigate their behavior and emotions with finesse—Rob's hundred strategies illuminate this path. We discuss the contrast between delayed gratification and instant rewards, and how this understanding can revolutionize self-management in young minds. Wrap up with us as we share a catalogue of professional learning opportunities that cater to the evolving needs of educational leaders, all available through the New South Wales Primary Principals Association. Join us for an episode that's not just a conversation, but a catalyst for elevating your educational leadership to new heights.
