Leadership Series
Who put me
in charge?
What do I do now?
Leadership in childcare is complex, often isolating, and rarely something we’re formally trained for.
This session marks the first in the Kootenay Childcare Initiative Leadership Sessions, a monthly webinar series designed for childcare providers and those supporting administration, management, and daily operations.
Join Nicky Byres, Executive Director of the Society of Richmond Children’s Centres, for an honest and practical conversation about leadership in childcare. With decades of experience leading a growing multi-site organization, Nicky brings real-world insight into the challenges and decisions childcare leaders face every day.
This first webinar focuses on:
- Foundations for childcare leadership
- Vision and values as anchors for decision-making
- Naming the challenges leaders are navigating right now
- Shaping future sessions based on participant needs
