152. Let’s Put the C in PLC: Featuring Chad Dumas


Listen Later

How would you describe a productive and effective Professional Learning Community (PLC)? In my experience in multiple schools and districts, this model has looked drastically different in each setting. This week’s guest, Chad Dumas, shares a practical guide for leaders on how to collaborate and get sustained results for students.  
In this episode, we discuss:
  • The Steps Needed to Get the Correct Leadership Experience for Aspiring Leaders
  • Tips to Create Effective Meetings
  • How to Increase Your Professional Development
  • And Chad’s new book, Let’s Put the C in PLC

      • Review the Podcast
        I want to give a huge shout out to those who have taken the time to provide a review on Apple, Spotify or any other podcast platform. It truly means the world to me that you would take the 30- 90 seconds to share how the podcast has positively impacted you or why other educators should check out the show. I really appreciate the reviews and to show some love to those listeners that have taken the extra time. This week’s 5 star review comes from handle “Always Learning Always Evolving” and they shared:
        “This is an exceptional podcast! Highly engaging with relevant content! Great guests and, as a host, Joshua asks the right questions and gives guests the space to share their thinking. Well done!”
        Thank you for this wonderful feedback! For any other listeners out there, if you leave us a review, YOU may get a shout out in the next Aspire episode!
