SUNDAY REWIND - The Psychology Behind Collaborative Team Meetings

SUNDAY REWIND - The Psychology Behind Collaborative Team Meetings

In this Episode of Leading Collaborative Response, Lead Learner and Co-Founder of Jigsaw Learning Kurtis Hewson addresses the contradictory statement "support the student by not focusing on them during the Collaborative Team Meeting" as well as a number of collaborative structures and processes that are implemented intentionally to create psychological safety for staff as they build their collective efficacy.
