B.O.L.D. for Learning Communities

B.O.L.D. - Beyond Ordinary Leadership Development

By adapting its B.O.L.D. coaching practices to meet the Educational Leadership environment, The Third Zone has created an innovative approach to improving student achievement through organizational and leadership development.

Why create a BOLD Learning Community?

• The development of and commitment to maintaining a strong and effective learning community provides students with consistent support and structures for academic success.
• Community engagement in and alignment around strategies for student success are required to maximize student achievement. When students are challenged and supported by all stakeholders in the learning community, the opportunities for their success increase exponentially.

B.O.L.D. starts with the School Leader

• We recognize the school principal as the hub of the learning community and the individual who most impacts the effectiveness and sustainability of the overall program.
• Our approach directly addresses student achievement outcomes by targeting specific barriers from the perspectives of all stakeholders within the learning community.
• We use a hybrid approach that combines best practices and experience from corporate organizational development, executive leadership coaching, relationship and systems coaching, and over 20 years of experience in diverse educational settings.
