The Holdsworth Center
The Holdsworth Center is a premier leadership institute based in Austin, Texas with the goal of supporting and developing public school leaders in order to improve, over time, the quality of education offered to every child in every classroom in Texas. We are developing a leadership culture within school districts that will build the foundation for greater student success. Our goal is to work with partner districts over a sustained period of time in order to create systemic change and structures around the identification, training, development and support of future leaders. We work hand-in-hand with districts to strengthen leaders and leadership culture through development programs that are aligned from the superintendent’s office down to campus principals. We help districts understand their own gaps in talent management, to establish their individual goals and priorities, and to develop action plans that will lead to sustainable changes. Throughout the partnership, the District Support team offers implementation assistance to ensure that key learnings from each immersive training session have an opportunity to take root.
