Support for leaders responsible for leading the work locally
As part of the Pro Membership, bravEd provides targeted guidance for district and central office leaders who are responsible for leading a Benefits-Based Accountability effort internally.
This guidance is designed to support the real conditions leaders are working within — limited time, competing priorities, and the need to make decisions that move the work forward without waiting for ideal circumstances.
Guidance for leaders doing the work themselves
Leading a Benefits-Based Accountability effort locally requires judgment, sequencing, and clarity — in addition to the frameworks.
The Central Office Guidance included in Pro is designed to support leaders as they navigate:
✔ Where to begin given current conditions
✔ How to prioritize next steps
✔ How to respond to resistance, confusion, or pressure
✔ How to maintain coherence as the work unfolds
✔ How to make progress without full team-based facilitation
This is not a scripted program or a compliance checklist. It is guidance shaped by experience with districts who have already led this work.
What this guidance looks like
Central Office Guidance is responsive and contextual. It focuses on the issues and decisions leaders are facing at the moment they need to address them.
Guidance may include support around:
✔ Interpreting local conditions and constraints
✔ Applying the frameworks to real district decisions
✔ Clarifying language for internal or public conversations
✔Anticipating common breakdowns in implementation
✔ Adjusting pace without losing direction
The intent is not to take over leadership of the work, but to strengthen the leadership already in place.
