Leadership Training, Coaching, Mentoring

Service Description

Great Schools Don't Happen by Accident. They're Led. Behind every thriving school is a leader who was equipped, supported, and challenged to grow. That's exactly what JFord Equips provides — personalized leadership training, one-on-one coaching, leadership team development, and ongoing mentoring designed to help educational leaders at every level reach their highest potential. With over 37 years of experience as a classroom teacher, principal, and assistant superintendent — combined with certification as a Maxwell Leadership Executive Director and Director of the Center for Teacher Effectiveness — Dr. Jeanne Ford brings a rare blend of real-world school leadership and world-class professional development to every engagement. Leadership Training: Whether it's a keynote, a half-day workshop, multi-session series, or full-year contract, training is built on proven Maxwell Leadership principles and tailored to your team's specific needs. Topics are built on Maxwell Leadership principles and include team building, school culture, DISC behavioral styles, communication, vision casting, and more. Every session is practical, engaging, and designed to produce immediate results — not just inspiration, but implementation. One-on-One Coaching: Leadership can be lonely, especially when you're navigating high-stakes decisions, difficult conversations, or a struggling school culture. Coaching provides a confidential, strategic partnership where you gain clarity, build confidence, and develop an action plan that fits your unique situation. Whether you're a first-year principal finding your footing or a veteran leader facing a new challenge, coaching meets you where you are and moves you forward. Mentoring: Long-term growth requires more than a single training event. Mentoring provides sustained support — a trusted guide who has walked the path you're on and can help you avoid the pitfalls while accelerating your progress. Dr. Ford's mentoring relationships are grounded in authenticity, accountability, and a genuine commitment to your success. All services are available virtually via Zoom or in person nationwide. Your students deserve a great leader. Let's make sure they have one.
