Know your people. Grow your people.
Leaders make or break schools.
Yet too often, leaders step into the role without the training, tools, or playbook to lead change and develop culture. Degrees prepare you for academics but not for engaging faculty or sustaining culture in times of stress and change.
That’s where The PDL Group comes in. We equip school leaders with the confidence, strategies, and data to lead change, develop culture, and create schools where teachers stay, students succeed, and communities thrive.
When leaders grow, schools grow.
We help schools build stronger leaders, engage teachers, strengthen teams, and accelerate emerging leaders to create thriving cultures.
What we do
At The PDL Group, we help schools develop leaders, engage teachers, strengthen teams, and accelerate emerging leaders. Our programs give principals the tools to lead change and build culture, provide teachers with strategies to reduce stress and improve student engagement, and equip teams with CliftonStrengths insights to boost collaboration and trust. With our Leadership Accelerator Workshops, new leaders gain the confidence and clarity to step into leadership without the guesswork.
How we help
We know that thriving schools don’t happen by chance, they’re built by leaders who can lead change, develop culture, and engage their people. With over 40 years of local and global classroom and leadership experience, we bring both the research and the real-world insight to help schools succeed.
Leadership Development – Get the playbook for leadership you wish you had including practical frameworks and coaching that equip leaders to set direction, inspire others, and build lasting culture.
Team Strengthening – Our CliftonStrengths and Team DNA approach helps teams understand what they naturally do well and where their blind spots are as well as help staff collaborate with trust, clarity, and focus.
Building an Engaged Culture - When people are engaged they are more productive, effective and collaborative. In the world of education this has become harder and harder to achieve. Learn strategies, protocols, and tools to build an engaged culture.
Leading Change - Every school is going through change whether it is a new curriculum, new hires, or broader initiatives. Learn the change process and tried and true practices to achieve your goals.
The result: Schools with stronger cultures, more engaged staff, and students who thrive.
