Effective Governance Teams
In our role as a school board member have you ever wished for a place where you could reflect on being a school board member? A place where you collaborate with other school board members? A place to grow and learn to be a more effective board member?
Stephen Covey Sr defines effectiveness lying in the balance between P/PC balance. P stands for production of desired results. PC stands for production capability, the ability or assets that produces the desired results. Applied to school boards, effectiveness lies in our ability to improve student achievement while balancing the needs of students, employees and the community.
The governance team consists of the elected board members and the Superintendent. Individually, each of us provides our own set of values, beliefs and expertise. Collectively, our ability to agree on a common mission and extend trust by designing and aligning systems to oversee public education in our community will determine our effectiveness as a governance team.
With you active participation we can create a professional learning community that increases the effectiveness of our local governance team.
