Successful leaders know that they must get out of their comfort zone to succeed. Great leaders from history are those who have spent a large amount of their time outside their comfort zone. . Leaders who take risks and step into their learning zone are those that succeed. It’s only when you can give up what’s safe and familiar that you create opportunities and develop new capabilities. As you do, you expand your influence and gain the skills required to take on bigger and bigger challenges. In this sense, leaders are self-made and not born, they are developed, not promoted. Leadership is a learned skill that is developed as you step out of your comfort zone. .

Vygotsky talked of the Zone of Proximal Development, and this article is in line with that foundational philosophy about learning. When we think about improving schools, both of Vygotsky and this article apply. We need leaders, teachers, and students operating outside their comfort zone, taking risks, setting goals, and learning. There is a danger in struggling schools to push too hard and move buying the productive zone for learning. This article speaks well to that aspect of learning. With good intentions, leaders at building, district, and state level often push a school and omits staff beyond the productive learning zone into the danger zone. This is done through programs, initiatives, and monitoring often with the goal of providing support, but with the result of overwhelming the school and staff. |
