Traditionally in education, the letters PD have stood for an antiquated, one-size-fits-all form of professional development inflicted upon educators. Mandated to flock to the same location at the same time, they sit and get the same thing...whether they need it or not. Just mention the words professional development, and you’ll get groans, eye rolls, and deflated educators in response.
Now, educators worldwide are on a mission to foster a movement toward personalized professional development and opportunities for true adult learning. With useful educational technology and a philosophy focused on a growth mindset, intrinsic motivation, and sustainable autonomy, the momentum is growing.
In “Professionally Driven: Empower EVERY Educator to Redefine PD” Jarod Bormann shows us exactly how to effectively implement personalized PD using his successful model. It’s the most extensive explanation anywhere. As a leader in the movement, Jarod lets us in on the process to redefine the letters educators traditionally dread into a true description of the best version of our educator selves - PROFESSIONALLY DRIVEN.
It is time to rethink adult learning and implement a model that helps create energized educators and leads to empowered student learners. Get your copy today and discover how to help yourself and your colleagues redefine PD while leading all educators to be PROFESSIONALLY DRIVEN.

I'm far from an avid reader. 10 years as a teacher and I couldn't put this down. Amazing book.

As a self-proclaimed ‘PD Geek,’ this book perfectly aligns with the vision I have for PD for myself and the staff I work with. This is truly the direction PD should go in all schools, and this book is the perfect boost to the confidence any school would need to implement Professionally Driven PD. GREAT read.
