This book is a culmination of many educational and business practices to accelerate and distribute learning throughout the organization. You will find twenty-five strategies to assess the ability and willingness of individuals and the school. This book will save leaders time by providing examples and a guide to implement processes to increase learning. The more talent schools have, the more students will learn.

These facilitation skills are already in use. Let’s learn, adapt, and take positive action to increase learning.

Recensioner i media

As a former principal and superintendent, I believe Bill Sommers has written a foundational book about talent development. He starts from the premise that talent exists in isolation, but only flourishes when an investment is made in adult learning. He demonstrates that by elevating the intellectual horsepower of adults, educators can create schools that embody talent density—schools where talented people make one another more effective. This invaluable book offers many pathways for committed leaders to create talent density—the payoff being schools that accelerate talent density in our students.
