www.tie.net Mentoring is: Getting Mentoring Right :: Mentoring is not :
32
www.tie.net An effective mentor: ◦ sets high expectations for self-development in high quality professional growth opportunities. ◦ has knowledge of and utilizes mentoring and coaching best practices. ◦ is active in instructional leadership. ◦ respects confidentiality and a code of ethics in the mentor protégé relationship. ◦ contributes to the body of knowledge as it pertains to principal and administrative mentoring. ◦ fosters a culture that promotes formal and informal mentoring relationships. NAESP Mentor Standards
33
www.tie.net Be low key in your approach Always be positive and supportive Let the principal determine how much help you can be Be willing to back off Don’t take rejection of ideas personally Continually reinforce the confidential nature of the relationship Be there for them Be careful about discussing the principal with superintendents or others Motivate principals to think for themselves From Extra Support for Principals (ESP), Albuquerque, NM Principles for Mentoring Principals
34
www.tie.net Mentoring is: Getting Mentoring Right :: Mentoring is not :
35
www.tie.net Topics submitted: 1.Principals' action plans - over time process vs. more event driven 2.How are mentors addressing their conversations differently with experienced principals and new/relatively new principals? 3.How do you change patterns in principals that have been ‘doing it for a long time?’ 4.Balanced LeadershipThat Works and how it is working for us in the schools with our mentees 5.Small group discussion Discussion
36
www.tie.net What resources are available through the TIE office and what we are using (have them available for review and checkout) EX: I have given about three resources out and have found other mentees would like/need the same material. Discussion on what happens if a principal leaves or takes a different job within the district for the following year? If it takes place before school is out, do we continue our efforts? How do you work on the leadership responsibility communication if the "team" feels left out and there is no open communication? How do you handle mentees that don't see that changing and don't feel they can have a honest open communication without "personal fall out“? What line do you walk when all the principals say the say thing. How do you respond when the criticism is toward the CEO of the district? This is "touchy" and a confidentiality issue-sharing it with anyone. Maybe a communication discussion in small groups with sharing. More discussion items
37
