Talent strategies for principals to improve MTSS delivery "Secondary"

School and district leaders will leave this session with research, tools and strategies for improving MTSS delivery through better talent management. While principals are seen as instructional leaders, they are also the front-line implementers of talent management and workforce development. In fact, principals spend much of their day managing people and giving feedback. A talent management approach to MTSS has two benefits. First, regular and special education can be integrated during classroom observations and feedback, common planning time and professional development, moving the workforce closer to IDEA’s vision of one system serving all students. Second, principals can differentiate educator support and development given the student populations being served. This session will begin with a review of the current research about the career cycle of educators: preparation, recruitment, selection, assignment, development and retention. From that, participants will engage in a scan of their current workforce challenges related to MTSS and, using evidence-based tools, generate strategies for developing the workforce. Participants should be prepared to openly share challenges with colleagues, and both give and receive feedback during the session. The tools and planning processes presented during this session can be used to address a variety of talent management needs.

  • Participants will understand the current research findings about educator preparation, teacher hiring, induction, development and retention.
  • Participants will use the lens of principal-as-talent-manager to identify levers for improving MTSS delivery through evidence-based workforce development.
  • Participants will identify at least one high-leverage MTSS- related challenge with their school's workforce and develop specific steps for improvement.
