I’m really excited about this interview with Eric Sheninger@NMHS_Principal.
Eric goes over the 7 pillars of Digital Leadership in his new book:
Eric talks about how his school’s journey and how that can be a template for changing from a mandate-driven school to one of empowerment.
Our conversation includes the following:
Eric talks about how he pulled 5 teachers aside in 2009 to instill his vision in their minds. He joined Twitter in March 2009, and so he really did have a change of heart. He shows that when he learns something new, he knows that it is important to implement it and change his life.
Have a Good Life.
Eric's Book Summary:
It’s time for the next generation of leadership. Digital leadership is a strategic mindset and set of behaviors that leverages resources to create a meaningful, transparent, and engaging school culture. It takes into account recent changes such as ubiquitous connectivity, open-source technology, mobile devices, and personalization to dramatically shift how schools have been run and structured for over a century. Leading in education becomes exponentially powerful when using technology to your advantage.
