Leadership
• What does leadership look like in schools?• Is it defined by title alone?• Leaders come in all shapes and sizes.• Good leaders lead by example.• Some of the best leaders are those who are
thoughtful, observant and listen more than they talk.
![Page 4: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Would you consider all of these people leaders?

Leadership…
A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is
done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves. —Lao Tzu
![Page 7: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Leadership is more likely to develop
• Participating in leadership activities that are personally meaningful
(Example: Fighting to save school counselor jobs with evidence of school counselor success in helping close achievement gaps)
![Page 8: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Take INITIATIVE
• Leadership role out of motivation – brings fulfillment
• Leadership role out of obligation – feels like a chore
• Taking part in building leadership teams show school counselors care about instructional strategies
![Page 9: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Ways to increase leadership roles:
1) Be visible around the school and connect professionally with school counselor, educator, staff and administration colleagues
2) Share expertise and knowledge that others would find helpful through mentoring, presentations, emails or simple print materials for reference
3) Join and participate professional organizations
![Page 10: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
More ways to increase leadership roles:
5) Present staff development on college/career readiness counseling, ethics, multicultural issues
6) Take on a new challenge. Leaders grow by pushing themselves
7) Start by volunteering to pick up the slack for a colleague who must temporarily step aside
8) Volunteer to chair a committee
![Page 11: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Do you have a fixed or a growth mindset?
MINDSET CATAGORIES FIXED GROWTHChallenges The school counseling
program does not need any change.
The school counseling program should be evaluated frequently and results used to guide the work for the department in supporting students.
Persistence In this school, we cannot run groups or go into classrooms because the teachers do not let us. So I see students whenever they are referred.
As a school counselor, looking at the data from the survey on study skills, I was able to provide an overview of student concerns to the teachers and together we are developing lessons to support students. I will then provide group activities in an appropriate time for those who need more support.
![Page 12: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Growth or Fixed Mindset?MINDSET CATEGORIES FIXED GROWTH
Effort No matter what lesson or activity the school counselor delivers, nobody notices. They just ask me to teach a lesson when they need a substitute.
Measuring what students learn as a result of the lesson or activity is essential work that guides school counseling curriculum development.
Feedback The administration and teachers do not understand the role of the school counselor. School counselors are not teachers so the feedback on classroom lessons really should not be given.
Having an advisory council provides the department with information related to the needs of students and the community as well as educates the administration and teachers on the effectiveness of school counseling programs.
![Page 13: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Collaboration…
A group becomes a team when each member is sure enough of himself and his contribution to praise the skill of the others.
-Norman Shidle
![Page 14: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Essential Skills for Counselors
• Counselors must know how to play well with others
• Strong communication skills • Taking the time and energy to build
rapport with staff and to educate others about the transformed role of the school counselor
![Page 15: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
It’s True• Counselors are the eyes and ears
of the school
• Counselors are the glue that holds the school together
![Page 16: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
COLLABORATION
―Collaboration is essential to student success
―Student success requires every stakeholder be on board
―Schools are often “silos”―Need a system perspective
![Page 17: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Collaboration• Understanding different roles means staff
support student needs without turf wars
• Collaboration across disciplines– Vertical and horizontal teaming– Professional Learning Communities– Share unique insights
![Page 18: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Collaboration
• For those counselors who have been teachers: – sharing this commonality with staff may increase
credibility – especially with veteran teachers and administrators
• For non-teacher counselors: – it is important for teachers to recognize their
separate but connected areas of expertise
![Page 19: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Benefits of Collaboration
• Help teachers see the benefit• Make lessons more meaningful and relevant to
students and teachers• It shouldn’t seem like something “extra” or an “add
on”– Math: Incorporate calculating a class grade and a GPA by
converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages– Science: Incorporate stress management techniques with
vocabulary and concepts about volcanoes– Social Studies: Incorporate conflict resolution strategies
with the study of the Civil War

Random Acts of Guidance vs.
Intentional Guidance
Are School Counselor’s in your school…
• Busy Professional vs. Always Available?
• Starters vs. Utility Players?
What gives our students the best? Random Acts of
Guidance or Intentional?
![Page 31: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Quote: Fair Share of Duties
“If all educators are counting state tests or taking a turn supervising afterschool sports, it is appropriate for school counselors to take a TURN also. If school counselors are the only people in school counting tests or supervising sports then it is no longer considered a fair-share responsibility.”
(Hatch, 2014)
![Page 32: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

A Revelation: Evidence Supported Intentional Guidance
“Even though school counselors know that addressing social and self-management skills contributes to improved academic outcomes, they rarely have school-based outcome data to support the effectiveness of this type of intervention.”
(Luck & Webb, 2009)
![Page 38: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

Disability Laws Create Cultures• Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of
1990 (IDEA)• Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
(Section 504)• Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990
(ADA)
They outline and frame a student’s transition path toward future goals.

IDEA
• Entitlement Law – Students will receive more services than their peers with this law
• Provides students the individualized services they need for learning
This is a pre-set plan!
![Page 57: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
504 Requirements of Education
• Protects individuals from discrimination based on their disability
• Provision of general or special education and related aids and services designed to meet the students’ “individual educational needs”
This is a guide!
![Page 58: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
ADA Requirements• Protects individuals with disabilities from
discrimination, making it a civil rights violation• Extends Section 504 to private sectors• Provide equal opportunity to participate in courses,
programs, and activities
This is self-advocacy!

Micro-Messages• Signals we send to one another through our
behavior and communication efforts• Ultimately convey the meaning of the message• Reveal a lot about our own biases and
preconceived notions• Messages are small, but the Impact can be large• Often semi-conscious; just below the surface• Built into an environmental culture• Can change lives
![Page 62: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Key Micro-Messaging Elements

• Confusing a person of a certain ethnicity with another person of the same ethnicity (shows simplicity)
• Rolling your eyes &/or Sighing loudly (shows judgment)
![Page 75: Welcome to GUIDANCEFEST 2014. Leadership and Collaboration Tommi Leach, Academic Coordinator, ODCTE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649dbd5503460f94ab04da/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
From Experience in the SPED World cont.
• Slowing or raising your voice, even though the other person has no difficulties hearing you (shows lack of disability knowledge)
• mentioning the achievements of other people (shows attempts to confine/pigeon-hole)
• making jokes aimed to lighten the mood before knowing the person well (shows discomfort)
• Issuing invitations that may be uncomfortable for certain groups (shows superiority)
