Lead Liberated

How do partnerships work?

Developing as an antiracist instructional leader is an ongoing journey. We support education leaders to develop as liberated leaders while learning technical and adaptive skills to lead their teams to develop an antiracist organizational culture through these structures:

Summer Professional Development

Lead Liberated offers summer professional development to support schools, districts and CMO’s to start the school year.

We can facilitate our two or three day PD in alignment with the outcomes of our Antiracist Learning Culture Institute.

Case Study

Gia Truong, CEO Envision Education from 2014-2022

After reviewing staff retention data, I realized that staff of color were leaving our organization at higher rates than their white colleagues. I heard from staff of color about their experience at Envision Education and I knew that we needed to make a big shift to become an antiracist and pro-Black organization. During my partnership with Lead Liberated, I learned to be more aware of and interrupt racism within myself and in our organizational practices and policies and to co-design an antiracist organizational culture. Teacher retention overall, particularly Black teacher retention, had been a focus for us for several years, contributing to Envision achieving our highest teacher of color retention rate of 91% in 2019.

Hear from Gia about how she used the 3P’s

Personal Leadership

I had to be deliberate and intentional about doing my own personal work to understand how white supremacy culture was showing up in my leadership and how to interrupt it.

Collective Practices

While attention to my own personal leadership was critical, I valued the ways that responsibility for the entire organization's equity initiatives didn’t fall on me alone.

Organizational Policies

Together, the leadership team and I realized we needed to redesign our hiring process to ensure it prioritized candidates with the lived experiences of the communities we served.
