From Rookie to Retiree - Transitioning People Well
What’s your job transition history? Has the journey been smooth or rough? Have you settled into one position or moved classrooms, schools, or roles at least once? Join us as we take a closer look at how we prepare for, adapt to, and grow in our roles, and how transitions affect us along with our entire school culture. Our interactive presentation will bring clarity and insights to this current issue and invigorate a renewal to our staff, ourselves, and, in turn, all students entrusted in our care. Together, we will reimagine how we address transitions in our profession. Leaving this session, we believe you will have fresh ideas and a genuine desire to renew your commitment to helping yourself and others transition in, up, and out well.
