2018 SURN Leadership Conference
June 18-19, 2018 at the W&M School of Education
Keynote Speakers:
Day 1: Renowned author and educational leadership expert, Michael Fullan. Complex times call for clear solutions, and Fullan’s Coherence Framework (2016) provides a vibrant, personalized road map for leading differently during times of change.
Our closing keynote Monday is from Adria Klein, professor emerita of reading education at CSU San Bernardino, who will share skills, dispositions, and competencies necessary to lead learning for transfer beyond the school’s four walls.
In an effort to expand our collaborative culture and your professional network, we’ve added a “pay as you go” networking event from 4:30 – 6:30 on Monday evening, featuring good food from Two Drummers Smokehouse and music while you connect and collaborate with colleagues, near and far. This event will be a perfect time to connect with them!
Day 2: International Educational and Communications Consultant, Jennifer Abrams. Jennifer will bring a dynamic, customized keynote designed to address how we as leaders can build up our skills in effective decision making, communication, and collaboration during times of rapid change.
Following Tuesday’s concurrent sessions, Steven M. Constantino, Ed.D., will close our conference with an engaging keynote designed to help us examine the intersection of leadership development and deeper learning as we plan and prepare for the upcoming school year.
We are also excited that Lisa Nelson, visual thinker and graphic recorder for See in Colors, will be returning after her popular involvement at last year’s conference, and she will also be offering a concurrent session, Sketchnoting for Beginners for interested participants (at a nominal extra charge for supplies).
