Building a Talent Pipeline Through Mentorship: Empowering Distributed Leadership in Schools

This session explores the impact of structured mentorship programs in fostering a culture of distributed leadership in schools. Participants will examine how mentorship not only supports individual professional growth but also strategically builds a robust talent pipeline to strengthen school teams over the long term. Through practical examples and discussions, we will dive into effective mentorship frameworks, identify key components of successful mentor-mentee relationships, and outline steps to create or refine a mentorship program that aligns with your school’s leadership goals. By the end of the session, school leaders will walk away with actionable strategies to nurture the next generation of educators and leaders, fostering an environment where talent grows from within.
