- how to determine the strengths of our students and staff
ideas to move to a strength-based model in schools
- ways to honour and recognize the strengths of our students
moving from MY students to OUR students
- school-wide activities that build on the strengths of students and staff
- providing opportunities for collaboration and leadership in areas of strength
The session is designed for educators that want to create change beyond their classroom walls; participants will walk away with practical ideas that can start an immediate shift to a strength-based culture in their school.

Each technological age has been marked by a shift in how the industrial platform enables companies to rethink their business processes and create wealth. In the talk I argue that we are limiting our view of what this next industrial/digital age can offer because of how we read, measure and through that perceive the world (how we cherry pick data). Companies are locked in metrics and quantitative measures, data that can fit into a spreadsheet. And by that they see the digital transformation merely as an efficiency tool to the fossil fuel age.

The Networked Administrator: Leading and Learning with Social MediaLyn Hilt
For Simple K-12 Webinar
"Sometimes who you know is as important as what you know. Having a wide range of professional connections not only broadens your reach, it can actually help you learn, grow, and become more efficient. This session explores the role of the networked administrator, who, as the school's lead learner, recognizes the value and use of social media to develop professional connections, build relationships and capacity, help create organizational efficiency, and bring innovative learning experiences to students and staff.
This session is designed for administrators, teachers, educators... anyone interested in learning more about the power of connected leading and learning! "
