As communication patterns and societal norms have changed, so too have our beliefs about leadership and leaders.

We expect more of leaders, and they can no longer lead simply based on their title or their position within the hierarchy. They lead based on their expertise and the relationships that they have developed through their experience.

In this workshop Tom Hoerr will talk about the skills and understandings that will be needed by leaders today and tomorrow.

Tom Hoerr believes that perception is reality, and that leadership should be inclusive and empowering. He has written exclusively about these issues in his bi-monthly column, "The Principal Connection", in Educational Leadership.

He will draw on experiences and challenges from his 28 years as head of the New City School (www.newcityschool.org) in St. Louis, Missouri.

Tom Hoerr's last visit to NZ was in 2007 and drew feedback such as:

"Great whole school leadership strategies, as well as ideas on building collegiality and leadership development."

"Thoroughly enjoyable - Tom's thoughts on school culture were particularly useful."

"Excellent ideas around working on a school vision with staff to ensure it's alive."

As this course takes place early in 2010 registrations need to be with us by the end of Term 4 2009.
