Teacher leadership is critical for building capacity and improving student learning. With the demands placed upon school principals, shared leadership is a necessary component of high performing schools. However, sustained teacher leadership is only possible if we attend to the wellbeing of teacher leaders, and the pandemic has brought significant challenges to teacher resilience. Through a partnership with thirteen school districts in our region, a council was created to provide a professional development opportunity for current and aspiring teacher leaders. Through this council, faculty from the university offered a seminar on building teacher leader resilience. Teacher leaders are continually faced with impediments to resiliency (daily stressors, lack of time, sickness, competing priorities, loss of control), but with intention, they can employ strategies to increase resilience. Attending to key areas of emotional intelligence positively impacts resilience and provides a path for teacher leaders to help colleagues develop greater resilience, too.
