Fear of failure is the No. 1 reason leaders resist change

Every school leader dreams of taking their school from Good to Great. But the path to high-performance takes more than desire. It requires a whole-system mindset.

Hi, I’m Dr. Greg Goins

As a former school district superintendent, I empathize with the pressures and anxieties you face day in and day out. Building high-performing schools is a difficult and lonely enterprise — it’s harder today than ever. As a school leader, it helps to have someone experienced in your corner to navigate the challenges and pitfalls that come with transformational leadership. My 7-step executive coaching program was created to help district superintendents and building principals reimagine their schools for 21st-century success.

How my approach is different

Join me — and take these 7 steps to reimagine your schools today

Most educational leadership coaches specialize in a single topic — school culture, PBIS, reading, math scores. My 7-step approach helps leaders see the full enterprise, so you can invest your team’s time and resources in the areas of greatest impact.

#1

Redefine school success

Define what it means to be successful in the 21st-century and create a plan, and the right messaging, to get there.

#2

Recognize the changing role of the teacher

Explore the role of the teacher, and how it’s changing, to give students more ownership over their own learning.

#3

Embrace principles of deeper learning & design thinking

Master practical strategies designed to help teams bring experiential and real-world learning opportunities into the classroom.

#4

Reimagine physical learning spaces

Take a hard look at your classrooms and learning spaces and explore changes to increase collaboration and engagement.

#5

Move toward evidence-based assessments

Traditional grading systems aren’t doing students or schools any favors. See how evidence-based assessments change that conversation.

#6

Create student-focused accountabilities

Test scores don’t tell the whole picture. Explore emerging accountability alternatives that put students first.

#7

Turn your redesign into a full-team effort

Design a collaborative process that brings administrators and teachers together to create truly student-centered schools.
