Episode 2: Barb Pitchford and Impact Teams

In this episode of AuthorED & InspirEd, I get to speak with Barb Pitchford co-author of LEADING IMPACT TEAMS: Building a Culture of Efficacy. Barb’s passion and candor come through as it pertains to our need to empower both students and teachers to create environments that thrive using the formative process.




Here is a short summary of the book:


Teachers are a school’s greatest resource. Excellent teachers make excellent schools. Leading Impact Teams taps into the team planning time every school already has scheduled and repurposes it to build teacher expertise in developing student ownership and agency. The Impact Team Model promotes a school culture in which teachers and students are partners in learning.
