As we navigate the complexities in our school communities, effective leadership entails more than just problem-solving; it requires the nuanced skill of managing polarities. In a world where opposing forces often tug at our decisions and actions, understanding and embracing these paradoxes is crucial for sustainability and fostering growth in our schools.
The Leading through Polarity Toolkit aims to equip and empower leaders with the necessary framework to address unsolvable dilemmas effectively. By embracing polarities not as obstacles to overcome, but as opportunities to evolve and innovate, we delve into real-world examples, actionable strategies, and successful practice.
The Leadership & Governance deck explains polarity management, provides graphic tools, and offers examples of polarity management in a school setting.
The Community & Connection deck provides guidance for schools as they manage internal and external communication about moments of crisis within and beyond the school. Approaching the question of when to make a statement should be strategic and mission driven. This deck includes a webinar recording, sample communication, a checklist, and additional resources for schools as they face potentially polarizing events.
