Part of being an educational leader includes inspiring future administrators and having a succession plan. As you are just beginning to learn the skills of a successful educational leader, thinking about what you might say to future leaders can help focus your own development. It is always helpful to begin with the end in mind.

Create an 8-10 slide digital presentation for aspiring administrators about the roles and responsibilities of the principal.

Include the following:

The effect principals can have on student outcomes when they accept responsibility for each student’s academic success and well-being.

The effect principals can have on faculty and staff when they promote a culture that is collaborative, provides needed support, and encourages personal self-efficacy.

1. The effects on students, staff, families, and the community when principals regularly model and promote the professional norms of integrity, fairness, transparency, trust, collaboration, perseverance, learning, and continuous improvement.
2. A title slide, reference slide, and presenter’s notes.
