Welcome to Next Level Leadership 2021. Learn, Lead, and Link leadership best practices to your leadership journey. Houston ISD Office of Leadership and Teacher Development in partnership with Houston ISD Human Resources are excited to provide these sessions and learning experience for aspiring and current leaders.
In a recent study, district leaders, principals, and teachers reported higher levels of burnout during the Coronavirus pandemic than the general population, twice as much difficulty sleeping as a result of stress, and higher risk of depression. The sheer volume of work, implementing CDC guidelines, worrying about the social and emotional health of students and their families, and a lack of time to focus on planning, teaching, and learning were the major causes of stress that can lead to burnout. Participants will engage in deep discussion and two powerful group activities that will improve their physical, mental, and emotional health, which will ultimately help them be more effective in their roles. Participants will learn ways to inspire themselves and generate creativity to start or continue performing at a high level.
