The Great On Their Behalf Academy

How does your board read governance?

School systems exist to improve student outcomes. School boards exist to represent their community's vision and values in pursuit of that one purpose. This free diagnostic puts real governance situations in front of you, then shows where your read matches the standard and where it does not. It takes about five minutes, and your results are your own.

Start the diagnostic

How it works

STEP 1

Pick a distinction

Choose one of the foundational distinctions effective boards work from, such as board work versus superintendent work.

STEP 2

Read the situations

For each one, decide which side of the line it falls on. These are real governance situations, not trick questions.

STEP 3

See the gap

We show you, item by item, where your read matched the standard and where a Certified Great On Their Behalf Practitioner would have read it differently.

Take the diagnostic

Choose a distinction to practice. Your first two are free.

Close the gap

Support for your governing team

Every board has gaps like these. A Certified Great On Their Behalf Practitioner supports your whole governing team, the board and the superintendent, in building the five practices that keep the focus on student outcomes. Tell us about your school system and we will connect you with a practitioner.

Please add your name and a valid email address.
