Developing & Supporting School Leaders at Every Level
Purpose:
To cultivate spiritual leadership principles grounded in sustainable leadership practices.
A key initiative to ensure ongoing leadership sustainability is the creation of our leadership institute, with the vision that all of our schools are continually led by highly effective, Christ-centred leadership teams.
The Leadership Institute will source and provide relevant, evidence-informed professional learning experiences for current, aspiring and emerging leaders based on the 70:20:10 model of learning and development. To accomplish this, the Leadership Institute will utilise expertise in the Adventist system and further build capacity by working with external providers. Each professional learning experience will align with individual reflection, capability, career stage and context to maximise leadership skills for the greatest impact. Transparent career pathways will be shared with all staff to encourage progression to and in school leadership. Potential leaders will be identified early in their careers to develop and nurture their leadership skills and will be given voice and agency. The Leadership Institute is the central focus or commitment by the system to leadership development. However, leadership development is everyone’s business.
