The Daily SEL Leader: A Guided Journal
A groundbreaking book from Corwin Press
A first-of-its-kind hybrid resource designed by education leaders for education leaders. Few, if any, SEL resources have been designed from the ground up to explicitly support school leaders in developing their own SEL skills through deeply personal reflection.
Personal, by Design
Find your path.
Take a short diagnostic to identify your own skills and then dive right into the book to begin working on them. We’ve designed the book to meet you where you are - and that may not be on page 1.
Choose your path.
Or, maybe you’d prefer to focus immediately on a key leadership topic, such as Increasing Equity or Deepening Relationships. We’ve bundled up key SEL skills into themes to get you going ASAP.
Create your path.
Or, perhaps you’d rather map your own journey. Each module and skill is numbered, allowing you to easily track how you’d like to move through the book. Start and finish wherever you’d like.
