Stewardship of Educational Leaders

Impact of Educational Leadership Episode 210Hosted by: I. D. III for Dr. Isaiah Drone IIIRadio Personality Nina Taylor | Buddy Thornton |Jerry Green |Stewardship of Educational Leaders Stewardship is a word as old as dust, not a new concept. Historically, stewardship has been the act of caring for God's creation, including the land, animals, people, and other resources. Likewise, in the educational platform, stewards have endeavored to extend what is healthy and humane, while working with equal vigor to resist and remove what is toxic and cruel. The past few decades in educational leadership have seen an increase in recognition of stewards’ importance and critical role in creating positive social change. But, there are steps to change and the process requires consistency and respect before, during, and after the changes have occurred. There are innumerable examples of stewardship on different levels. Any person or organization can be a steward of well-being as long as they are willing to share responsibility for working together with others to change the system and expand opportunities for all people to thrive in the future.
