Game Plan: A Playbook for Developing Winning PLCs at Work

Authors - Hector Garcia, Katherine McCluskey and Shelley Taylor

Game Plan: A Playbook for Developing Winning PLCs at WorkTM asserts that educators and schoolwide and district leaders can learn a lot from champion-ship level sports teams. Like a sports team, a school leadership team must develop a uniform game plan to foster a collaborative community of learners, develop a shared focus, and meet growth goals. It takes more than enthusiasm and a few talented individuals to build strong collaborative relationships and be consistently successful. Authors Hector Garcia, Katherine McCluskey, and Shelley Taylor provide a collection of coaching points in order to help teams examine their process, explore change and new concepts of leadership, assemble commitment to PLC princples, and concretely employ these principles in a PLC culture.

Educators will:

Learn why a well-defined game plan is necessary for schools and districts to build solid collaborative relationships and be steadily successful

Study the coaching points featured in each chapter, which highlight a skill or strategy and how to implement it to achieve a critical aspect of a uniform game plan

Assess facilitation guides, conversation prompts, related questions, templates, and rubrics they can use to evaluate and build their game plane

Read quotations that provide real-world links to the described strategies and that can be used for self-reflection
