Leadership training for teachers

1. TALL TREES LEADERSHIP TRAINING
Promoting
leadership and
change in teachers.

2. Teachers exhibit leadership in many ways. Some leadership
roles are formal with specific responsibilities such as HOD’s.
Other more informal roles emerge as teachers interact with
their peer teachers. This ensures that teachers can find ways
to lead that fit their talents and interests. Some teachers might
be curriculum leaders where others might be instructional
specialists. One teacher might be an activist for tradition and
another the perfect catalyst for change.

3. Regardless of the roles they assume, teacher leaders
shape the culture of their schools, improve student
learning, and influence practice among their peer
teachers.

4. TASK-ORIENTED
PERSON-ORIENTED
INTROVERTED
EXTROVERTED
Every teacher’s
personality can be
plotted somewhere
on this grid. Are you
sure that each staff
member manages a
portfolio which suit
their personality
and leadership
strengths?

5. Leadership and personality profiling have become a competitive market
in South Africa. Various products and services of high standard
are available.
Why?
Our personality traits, attitude, and self-esteem have everything to do
with human relations. No school or business can function optimally
without sound human relationships.

6. So why choose Tall Trees Profiles?
-
Tall Trees ProfilesTM are truly South African, culturally relevant, affordable and available
throughout the country. Within less than half an hour, the profiles present a trustworthy
description of the individual. The Tall Trees Leadership profile results in a three-faceted
perspective on individuals by taking into account how they function with regards to their
social activities, employment and general life view. The Profile focuses on every person’s
responsibility to make optimal use of their strengths and not to hide behind so-called
“weaknesses”.
Tall Trees ProfilesTM have a fresh perspective on leadership that excludes nobody. Our
leadership philosophy allows for task-orientated and people-orientated leadership in and
outside the spotlight

7. The Workshop Method:
The workshop will be conducted in English / Afrikaans. At the beginning of the
workshop each delegate will be requested to complete his/her own leadership
profile. This will be followed by a Tall Trees PowerPoint presentation where every
delegate discovers his/her unique leadership profiles. The profiles remain the
property of Tall Trees ProfilesTM, and will be collected from each delegate once the
test results have been transferred to the workbooks. The Tall Trees workbook is
the property of each delegate and contains practical growth areas for personal –
and leadership development.

8. What can be expected during this workshop?
An interactive, lively and informal workshop, where each delegate will be able to
learn the following aspects about him/ herself and others:
Forces Within – your unique strengths
Fields of Greatness – when and where you should step forward and lead
Fertilizer – what you need to give your best
Frostbite – what stops you from growing even further
Forest Fires – your unique way of communicating and handling conflict
Fast Forward – growth areas to achieve your unique potential
