Participant Feedback

“Our Leadership team’s work with Jodie has been revolutionary and empowering. Stepping us through interactive and practical workshops, Jodie has challenged and coached us to create School Improvement Plans and evaluation processes that meet the school’s needs and priorities in an effective and efficient way. As Leaders, we all know the pressure of using our finite time wisely and supporting staff to invest in meaningful activities (or initiatives) that result in measurable improvement. We know this work demands strategic and analytical thinking along with interpersonal skills. The tools and guidance Jodie provides has allowed us to work smarter and with more clarity, resulting in a growing level of shared accountability and purposeful actions at our school.”
