  ENGAGEMENT ACROSS BOUNDARIES
  Keynote Address: The Power of Linkages: How Leaders Support Integration to Achieve Results -Education organizations are full of potential connections among their various elements, such as educational standards, professional development, and student results. Rather than connections, however, these organizations are often characterized by disconnections among people, strategies, and actions. Adopting the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Program model provides organizations with a systemized management approach with clear linkages between key elements. In this session, Sandra M. Byrne, Ph.D. Education Specialist, Baldrige National Quality Program and Sandra Cokeley, APR Director of Quality and Community Relations, Pearl River School District, Pearl River, New York, will focus on the power of these linkages and the role of the school leader in fostering them.
