Creating a Coherent and Comprehensive Approach to Managing Educator Talent

A joint study by the IBM Institute for Business Value and the Human Capital Institute found that although attention to human capital practices varied substantially across industries, the education field was found to be the least likely to engage in “enlightened talent management practices.” In this August 2013 Rhode Island Board of Education Meeting  presentation, GTL Center Director Angela Minnici discusses what it would take to attract top talent to the teaching profession. Minnici explains the process of managing educator talent throughout the teacher and school leader career continuum in order to strengthen the educator workforce.  This presentation provides strategies for preparation, recruitment and hiring, induction and mentoring, evaluation and professional growth, compensation and incentives, and educator environment.
