Abstract: To boost teacher leader morale and satisfaction, and fulfill the promise of teacher leadership, we argue that district and school leaders need to lean in on management processes by developing and applying strategic management of human capital (SMHC) policies and practices to their teacher leadership programs. In our view, endeavors should not shy away from management policies and practices, but embrace them to empower teacher leaders. To elaborate on what this may entail, we provide an overview of nine SMHC practice areas and resources to guide district staff in their endeavors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
