The 3rd Annual Future Ready Summer Book Club Starts This Week On June 6th! Leave Your Welcome Message & Get To Know Everyone Here.

Friends, the 3rd Annual Future Ready Summer Book Club kicks off this week on Tuesday, June 6. 

Here is what you need to get started! 

First things first – join the Book Club discussion! We are hosting the club on K12 Leaders, an exclusive professional learning community for educators, to host our weekly discussions and final live session.

You can create your account now. We encourage you to complete your account profile so you can connect with colleagues both inside and outside our group. Additionally, we highly recommend downloading the K12 Leaders mobile app, ensuring that our weekly discussions are always at your fingertips throughout the summer!

Now, let’s walk you through how the Book Club will flow.

Each week, from Tuesday to Monday, we will focus on a specific chapter and we are asking you to accomplish three key tasks:

  1. Share your thoughts and expertise on the weekly discussion board.
  2. Record your personal reflections within your customized study guide. You can use ours or create your own.
  3. Challenge yourself by putting your learning into action through the weekly “Do it” activity. Share your successes and reflections in the dedicated weekly “Do it” discussion.

Here’s the schedule for our weekly chapters and discussions:


June 6-12: Chapter 1 – The Need for Leadership Everywhere

June 13-19: Chapter 2 – Intention

June 20-26: Chapter 3 – Connection

June 27-July 4: Chapter 4 – Direction

July 5-10: Chapter 5 – Creating Capacity to Lead

July 11-18: Chapter 6 – Breaking the Versus Mentality

July 11-18: Chapter 7 – Moving Forward Together

July 19, 12:00 pm ET: Live Discussion. You can access this session from our group or here.

If you happen to miss a week or fall behind, don’t worry! The discussion threads will remain available throughout our time together, allowing you to catch up or simply read the book at your own pace and join us for the final discussions. We want to ensure this experience is tailored to your professional growth.

Are you excited to get started? The group is now open, and we are eager to get to know each other. Drop by the Welcome discussion and introduce yourself. We invite you to record a quick video as part of the introduction. Don’t worry if videos aren’t your thing; if you feel comfortable, a written post with a picture works just as well.

Remember, the Welcome discussion allows us to connect and create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Feel free to let your creativity shine, be yourself, and, above all, have fun.
