How do you move beyond daily school operations and become an active driver of classroom improvement? In this episode of the Building a Culture of Collaboration podcast, Kurtis and Lorna dive deep into the new book by veteran educational leader Glenn Forbes: Instructional Leadership: 15 High-Impact Practices to Develop Instructional Leaders.

The research is undeniable—instructional leadership has a greater impact on student outcomes than any other form of school leadership. Yet, finding the time and framework to develop this capability is one of education’s greatest hurdles. Glenn Forbes joins us to break down his evidence-based, 5-component framework designed to help school leaders step out of administrative management and into impactful learning leadership.

Whether you are an aspiring leader, an experienced principal coaching a team, or a system executive supporting multiple campuses, this episode provides a clear, practical roadmap for driving sustainable school improvement.

What is Building a Culture of Collaboration?

Are you an educational leader or administrator searching for actionable strategies to build effective teams? In the Building a Culture of Collaboration podcast, Jigsaw Learning co-founders Kurtis and Lorna Hewson provide simple, purposeful tips to help you tackle meeting frustration, disengagement, and unproductive teamwork. This is your essential resource for advancing school improvement and collective efficacy.

You will find practical ideas for mastering effective meetings, where you learn the structures, roles, and agendas required to ensure your team meetings (PLCs, staff, student support) are focused and drive action. You'll discover how to shift your organization's mindset from isolated practice to powerful, shared responsibility for ALL students—this is key to teamwork and collaboration. Finally, you'll gain the leadership strategies needed to intentionally build a robust and sustainable culture that maximizes collective capacity and student success. We also talk with thought leaders outside of education, to grow our understanding of effective collaboration and teamwork.
