Talent Management Coaches - Policy Team
Talent Management Coaches - Policy Team
Location: New York

Description
We are currently seeking two full-timeTalent Management Coachesto implement a talent management system focused on teacher effectiveness. These positions report to the Partner and will work from our central office in Brooklyn, New York or from a home office anywhere in the New York area. The Talent Management Coaches will be required to travel 4-5 days a week to New York City schools. These positions are available immediately. We are seeking candidates who are either available to start immediately in a full time position, or who are available to start part time, transitioning into a full-time role by fall 2010. Candidates should indicate their timeline and availability in their cover letter.
The Program
Recently, TNTP has published a third national report,The Widget Effect: Our National Failure to Acknowledge and Act on Differences in Teacher Widget Effectdescribes how our public education system treats teachers as interchangeable parts, not individual professionals. Though it is widely accepted that a teacher’s effectiveness matters more than any other school factor in student success or failure, our school systems operate in a policy framework that assumes all teachers are the same. As a result, excellence goes unrecognized, development is neglected and poor performance goes unaddressed. Instructional effectiveness almost never factors into critical decisions such as which teachers are hired, developed or retained. This pervasive indifference to performance disrespects teachers and gambles with the lives of students. TNTP believes that until we make a teacher’s effectiveness matter, our schools will never be able to realize sustainable improvement or close the achievement gap that has long disadvantaged poor and minority students. (For the full reports, .) Our work has been acknowledged by U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan and has influenced the administration’s new, ground-breaking reform programs, the Race to the Top Fund and Investing in Innovation Fund.
TNTP has partnered with the New York City Department of Education (NYCDOE) to design and develop a comprehensive teacher talent management system with a focus on teacher effectiveness. In particular, TNTP will provide on-the-ground support to a small number (10-15) of schools to help them manage the talent of their teachers, especially probationary and tenure-eligible teachers, by assisting in the diagnosis of the teacher’s current level of performance and needs for development.
