“ Leadership has less to do with position than it does disposition.” – John Maxwell I am currently working on a new edition of Digital Leadership for Corwin and I am very excited, as it will be in color. A great deal has changed since Digital Leadership was published in 2014. Leadership is leadership ladies and gentlemen.

More often than not, professional development is something that is done to educators as opposed to an experience that they truly value for growth. Learning is the ultimate goal for our students, not development.

If professional learning was not emphasized, it’s definitely not too late. Digital leadership compels us to meet them where they are and engage in two-way communications using a hybrid approach. Think about experiences that reflect the conditions where your students will be expected to learn remotely.

Much like Ellison’s protagonist, I feel I have only been viewed as other people's definition of who I am supposed to be. Soon after, I began my first summer professional development at a school in the neighborhood I grew up in. My ability as a leader is hardly recognized. Who Am I in Education?

I love this definition, as there are so many apparent connections to a growth mindset, entrepreneurship, and innovation. However, we must understand that opportunities will not just drop in our laps if a culture of possibility is not developed. Don’t just discover opportunity, but also build doors to welcome it in.
