ההוראה שבויה בדפוס דיבור המכונה ימ"מ — המורה יוזם, התלמידים מגיבים, המורה מעריך. דפוס הדיבור הזה מיועד לחלץ את "התשובה הנכונה" מהתלמידים ולחזק את שליטתו של המורה בכיתה; הוא מונע מהתלמידים את היכולת לחשוב בכוחות עצמם. דפוס זה צומח אמנם מן המבנה של בית הספר, אך אפשר להיחלץ ממנו ולהנהיג בכיתות דפוס דיבור חינוכי יותר.

תפיסת תפקיד המנהל כמנהיג פדגוגי גורסת, שמושאי השינוי המרכזיים של המנהיג הפדגוגי צריכים להיות ההוראה והלמידה המתרחשות בכיתות. הצגנו מקרה בוחן של תהליך המשוב בכיתה, שכן מן המחקר עלה שהמשוב הוא אחד הגורמים המשפיעים ביותר על הלמידה. בחנו יחד כיצד יכול מנהל לקדם פרקטיקת הוראה זו ואחרות בבית הספר, ובאילו כלים. תיעוד המושב במהפכות של יום יום, הכנס הארצי השלישי למנהלי בתי ספר

הדרך לחולל שינוי משמעותי אינה כרוכה במאמץ משמעותי. לרוב די במאמץ קטן, שמקורו בתשומת לב ובגישה שונה, כדי להוביל לשרשרת תגובות שיחוללו מהפכה של ממש וייצרו מציאות חדשה, טובה יותר. במושב זה הוצגו דרכים ודוגמאות לתכנון וליצירה של שיח אנושי ההולם את המרקם האנושי המאפיין את סביבת העבודה בבתי ספר. בחנו אמצעים לניהול שיחות קשות בדרך מקצועית וממוקדת, לצד דרכים לנִטרול התנגדויות וקונפליקטים במציאות מורכבת, רבת-ממדים ועתירת שותפים. תיעוד המושב במהפכות של יום יום, הכנס הארצי השלישי למנהלי בתי ספר
