THE ROLE:

As MD, Leadership Development, you will be the primary success partner for ensuring that a cohort of CMs (25-28) and incoming CMs (10-15) are positioned to access what they need in order to impact our 10 year goal, and enter alumnihood with a clear vision for how they can continue to contribute to One Day from the matriculation phase through their two year commitment. You will lead the development of an individualized and customized plan of support for each corps member, drawing on their strengths, interests, and needs to propel them towards exceptional results with their students in their classrooms. In partnership with your Regional Point(s) of Contact, broader regional team(s), and fellow MD,LDs you will work to steward progress towards the 2030 goal in-region by ensuring that each participant can navigate through their ecosystem of support receiving a standardized, customized, and personalized experience.

Through pre-service you will holistically support the corps members and cohort experience by leading community gatherings, facilitating coaching spaces, and working alongside your regional team(s) and national partners to design the practicum experience. During their corps experience you will work with each corps member to evaluate inputs to assess root causes, connect them to specific people and resources to address needed learning and growth, support them in making sense of both their ecosystem of support and their broader experience, and overall serve as an executive and leadership coach to each of them.

The ideal candidate is passionate about supporting corps members to achieve strong results with students through building relationships, making connections to people and resources, supporting reflection and data-informed decisions, and analyzing student learning to determine recommended supports in service of driving continual learning and improvement. You enjoy being a partner and guide in the vast ecosystem supporting corps members. You have a systems-level understanding of the moving pieces and the critical thinking skills to help them navigate the ecosystem to maximize learning. You are experienced with leadership coaching and are confident advising adults.
