The Challenge Continues

"The next chapter of The Leadership Challenge® Journey"


The Challenge Continues (TCC) is designed for leaders who have completed The Leadership Challenge® two-day workshop and at least one instance of the Leadership Practices Inventory 360® online.


This series is designed to move The Leadership Challenge® leaders beyond the foundational tools and skills acquired previously. Additionally, some activities ask school leaders to move beyond the self-development focus of previous programs and identify ways of expanding their use of the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership® to develop team members and to influence the broader work of their schools and districts.

All 2021 TCC 3-hour events will be held virtually on each of six dates, no travel required.

Like all school leaders, KASA The Leadership Challenge® alumni are always looking for ways to implement newly learned skills and behaviors, and then maintaining the enthusiasm of the early days following The Leadership Challenge® workshops.

Throughout the series, expect to dive deeper into each of the practices, expand your knowledge base, learn to apply the LPI® to your own leadership practice, gain insight to the research behind the work, and most importantly how to implement The Leadership Challenge® at your school or district in meaningful and sustainable ways.

Special Announcement:
In appreciation of KASA member The Leadership Challenge® completers, the 2021 Challenge Continues series has been approved for a significant cohort group price discount. Plus, cohort price includes a new administration of the LPI® Do the Math!
