Description:
Join us for an engaging and transformative professional development session that redefines leadership in the realm of literacy. In this dynamic and interactive experience, we’ll explore the essence of leadership—not defined by titles or years of experience, but by the courage to show up, step up, and elevate others. Expect to dive deep into high-impact leadership with a focus on awakening the leader within you. This session will ignite your passion by highlighting how improved leadership directly correlates to enhanced student learning.
Presenter:
Terrie Noland is an education leader who has devoted her career to unlocking the potential of learners of all ages. She is a former educator, school leader, and national non-profit leader. Dr. Noland is a respected keynote speaker and mentor who strives to be the spark that ignites the flames of motivation and enthusiasm in others. She holds a doctorate in Literacy and Educational Leadership and is certified by Maxwell Leadership. Dr. Noland’s philosophy is rooted in the belief that great leaders don’t just achieve success; they cultivate it in others. Known for her contagious energy and heartfelt storytelling, Dr. Noland is a force multiplier that helps others discover the joy and strength that literacy and leadership can bring. When she’s not transforming lives through her work, she can be found mentoring emerging leaders, expanding her knowledge, and sharing her vision of a world where the power of leadership unlocks limitless possibilities. Some of her favorite words are: yet, abundance, rejoice, monumental, boomerang, giggle, and cacophony.
