Open House: The Devi Project: Executive Coaching for Women of Color in Public Education

Using research-based theories of organizational dynamics, participants in the Devi Project will develop greater comprehension of their leadership roles, learn how to critically assess their effectiveness, create strategies for personal and professional success, construct specific plans to improve student and staff performance, and explore how to maximize positive school outcomes. 

Over the course of a full year, school leaders will work directly with coaches, established leadership experts and fellow Devi Project members in one-to-one, small group and workshop settings.  Guest lecturers will include successful women leaders of color and key thought leaders from a variety of fields who will provide practical tips and tools for leadership development.

All participants will also have regular, ongoing access to Devi Project coaches in addition to their scheduled sessions. 


During their year with the Devi Project, school leaders will:

--deepen their understanding of their leadership strengths and learn how to leverage them

--examine how their personal values and principles guide their work as leaders

--acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to design and implement change efforts within their schools
--identify and cultivate resources to promote school improvement

--explore the difference between management and leadership 


Please join us for an introductory open house on Tuesday, July 23rd at the Brooklyn Public Library’s Shelby White and Leon Levy Info Commons Lab from 3:30-4:30pm.
