This course teaches prospective administrators how to create a more flexible culture focused on problem solving, learning, and successful communication in their school/school district community. Prospective administrators learn how to recognize what can be mandated and when mandates make sense, what is susceptible to problem solving and when issues are best dealt with collaboratively, how and when to focus on instructing members of the school/school district community, and how and when not to intervene. There is a particular focus on strategies and techniques for problem solving, collaborative work, and successful instruction of adults.
