North Carolina teachers are invited to join us to examine Global Education and the development of a “Portrait of a Global Leader.” Engage in the study and discussion of: the impact of Global Education, the growth of Global Leadership, distributive and collective teacher leadership models (Global Committees), SEL alignment to Global Competencies, College/Career readiness and workforce development in a globally competitive society, and building global teaching practices. Discover how to “Pay Attention, Feel Connected, and Take Action” as you work with other NC Global Educators in reflecting on how students can “Change the World” by changing where they are. Join in our dialogue about how Global Leaders can spread their enthusiasm for Global Education to other members of the education profession and engage their communities in the process of “Uniting Our World.”

Our first book talk for 2023 will be Brené Brown's Dare to Lead. Brown uses research, stories, and examples to answer tough questions about how to cultivate braver, more daring leaders and embed the value of courage in your culture.

Daring to lead is not about having the right answers, it is about staying curious and asking questions. It is about recognizing the potential in people and ideas.

This online self-paced course will begin on January 9th and will run until March 17th. There will be three Zoom meetings, where participants can come together face-to-face to discuss the book, ask questions, and read-aloud important sections. For those who cannot meet, all of the information is in the course broken down into modules.
