Through the Leadership Lens! Pathways to Excellence in Speech, Language and Literacy
presented by Wayne Secord, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
Why are some clinicians so successful? What do they do that works so well? This program will offer a critical look at the nature of clinical excellence and describe a number of ideas and strategies that can be used to produce change in the clients and students you serve. It will: (1) consider the nature of clinical leadership and what speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and other educators can do to assume leadership roles in the schools, (2) utilize a novel classroom matrix (the CPA: Classroom Performance Assessment) as a "lens" for analyzing and understanding many of the difficulties students present in language and literacy, (3) examine 28 common classroom problems and how clinicians and teachers can address them collaboratively, and finally (4) discuss 101 ways speech-language clinicians can team (collaborate) with a variety of other educators and parents to improve student performance in reading, writing, listening, speaking, social communication, and executive functions. Participants will gain new and unique perspectives on clinical excellence and leave feeling connected and inspired. Join us for a truly engaging experience presented by one of the most dynamic speakers you will ever hear.
