10. Six Pillars of Great Leadership LEADERS... Set big goals that align and focus a team’s energy on an audacious vision of success, creating a sense of urgency and excitement. Invest those around them in believing they can and want to achieve the goal and in working extraordinarily hard to achieve it.

13. Pillars in Practice - The Institute of Learning

14. Set Big Goals Set powerful, big goals that are measurable, ambitious, and meaningful As a student worker… “In order to find 30 top math students, I am going to deliver 8 presentations in math classes next week.” “Last month, 30 people came to our information session, but this month we’ll have 60.” As a teacher… “ALL of my students will go to college. The lucky ones will attend Arizona State University!!” “By the end of the year, my first graders will read, write and do math and behave like third graders.”

15. Invest Your Constituents Get everyone intently focused and committed to achieve the goal. As a student worker… Before asking a professor to present, a student worker schedules a 30 minute meeting to explain the goal of your speech. (if necessary) In order to market more efficiently, a student worker recruits and trains a volunteer marketing team. As a teacher You make 20 calls to parents each week to celebrate their children’s progress. Excellent teachers hang banners all over their classrooms with slogans like “ALL of us WILL learn” and “There are no shortcuts.”

16. Plan Purposefully Work backwards from the big goal with meticulous plans. As a student worker… Create a plan for # of information sessions and other events as well as execution targets. i.e. “I will host 5 information sessions by December, averaging 1-2 per month.” Student worker creates a classroom and student organization presentation plan for the first semester during the 1 st 2 weeks of training. As a teacher Start your lesson plans with the objective. Create long-term plans from thinking about the end of the year first.

17. Execute Effectively Align actions (micro and macro) around the big goal and make wise adjustments in response to changing realities. As a student worker… A student worker realizes she’s behind on her weekly class presentation goal, so she reaches out to team captains to see if she can present to athletes instead. A student worker decides to block off the same 7 hours every week to devote to job responsibilities, ensuring he can consistently meet all goals. As a teacher Using hand signals that students can use to show whether they ‘need help’ or ‘can give help’… teacher can circulate to the spots in the room where they are most needed.” A teacher decides to conference with each student every week in order to discuss their goals and progress with them and makes adjustments as needed.

18. Continuously Increase Effectiveness Seek feedback and engage in frequent self-critiques. As a student worker… Student worker creates, reflects on, and uses student surveys to evaluate effectiveness of marketing and presentations. Student worker regularly seeks feedback from manager and tracks his own professional development. As a teacher Meeting students in class before and after school, and at lunch to gather feedback from them, provide extra help, etc. Reflecting on your classroom management and asking your instructional supervisor to observe and provide feedback.

19. Work Relentlessly Go above and beyond conventional parameters to do what it takes to achieve the goal. As a student worker… In order to raise awareness of our campaign and efforts to elevate the status of our profession, a student worker creates a student organization focused on educational equity. A student worker arranges visits to MLFTC classes so that prospective students can see teacher education programs in action. As a teacher A teacher realizes that students need additional study time before a big test and arranges to host study sessions on Saturday’s at the Boys and Girls Club. A student in your class is having a hard time completing homework due to his living environment. You set up time for him to complete his homework during lunch.
