Nurture leadership qualities in teachers.
Undoubtedly, all leaders face setbacks. It is important that school administrators possess the skills needed to assist teacher leaders in working through obstacles. As leaders, we must realize the challenges; obstacles and setbacks are part of the leadership journey. As we empower teacher leaders to be leaders, we must not abandon them, but be by their side guiding them throughout their journey. Words of encouragement through one-on-one coaching will go a long way with new teacher leaders. School administrators must understand that novice teacher leaders will at times need mentoring and not abandon them to their own devices. In order to nurture leadership, administrators must schedule time to meet regularly with teacher leaders to discuss difficulties that teacher leaders may be experiencing, provide feedback and strategies for success, and in some cases, just listen to them.
