Leadership Development Provided by NEA Midwest Regional


On Monday, July 31st, 2006, the ISEA Executive Board had the opportunity to pariticipate in training on "Fundamentals of Effective Board Involvement". Team ISEA was fortunate to call upon Mary Canty Merrill (pictured at right) from our NEA Midwest Regional office, who facilitated our morning long training.

With new members joining the ISEA Executive Board, I felt this would be a great opportunity to also have a "refresher" for our returning board members.

Training segments included: Role of Board Members; Accountability; Knowledge-based Decision Making; Keys to sustaining Success; and Lessons learned.

All board members engaged in the process and came away with polished skills and a renewed purpose for serving Team ISEA. Thanks, Mary! You did a tremendous job of getting us all involved. Please come back to Iowa soon!
