Скачать или смотреть Being an Instructional Leader: Easy to Say, Almost Impossible to Do with Mark Shellinger

So glad I got to sit down with veteran educator and national thought leader Mark Shellinger, creator of the SAM Process (NSIP). Mark’s work—backed by a decade of research from the Wallace Foundation—helps principals dramatically increase the time they spend on instructional leadership.

Most principals spend 13% of their time instructionally engaged.
SAM Principals? 57% or more.

How do they do it?

Mark tells the origin story of the SAM Process and shares immediately actionable strategies that any leader—whether part of NSIP or not—can use to spend more on instructional leadership and reclaim their time.

If you're a school leader who wants to shift from “interruption-driven management” to high-impact instructional leadership, this episode is for you.


Walk away with MAIN IDEAs…
1 MAIN IDEA: As a leader, think about the support you would want if you were the teacher.

1 HIGH-LEVERAGE ACTION: Validate, Listen, Triage. Teach support staff to validate concerns of those coming into the office, listen, and then triage – send them to someone OTHER than the principal so the principal can focus on teaching and learning.
