PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT FOR EDUCATIONAL LEADERS

Developing The Leaders Around You

Elevate Every Educator with Tailored Strategies That Amplify the Unique Talents They Bring To The Team 

Welcome to Look Up and Beyond Inc,where we believe in the transformative power of education and leadership, and our mission is to elevate every educator through tailored strategies that amplify the unique talents they bring to the team. 

We understand that every educator is a leader in their own right, possessing distinct strengths that contribute to the collective success of a school environment. Our focus is on cultivating these strengths, fostering a culture of continuous growth, and empowering educators to reach their full potential.
Our commitment to transformative collaboration shines brightly in the recently unveiled Principal's Performance Evaluation (PPO) from the superintendent's office. Dive into the extraordinary narrative of our impactful work at a high school in New York City, where innovation meets dedication.

In the challenging landscape of education, educators often navigate a myriad of adversities, from evolving curricula to diverse student needs. 

At Look Up and Beyond, we recognize the hurdles educators face and are committed to providing practical and personalized solutions.

Perhaps you’re currently…

  • Navigating the intricacies of leading educators, counselors, and support staff?

  • Feeling the weight of potential burnout on your shoulders?

  • Wishing to deeply connect with the hopes and realities of today's diverse staff, student and extended school body?

Imagine a school environment where…

…The word “collaboration" is woven into the very fabric of your team's interactions.

Imagine a thriving school culture where every person is developing the leader within them to contribute to the collective vision and mission of your school?

What if I told you that such a vision could be your school’s reality?

Let me offer you a glimpse of the transformation we can realize together, through the words of a partner institution:

“Jessica Janniere has consistently demonstrated exceptional leadership, effectively communicating ideas, engaging others, and, most importantly, connecting with a diverse community to create lasting change. Her valuable contributions have led us to invite her back for the third consecutive year, and we firmly believe she would be an invaluable asset to the broader school community here in NYC and beyond.” 

~ Raizy Silberstein, Assistant Principal

A common statement from leaders of large organizations is “People are our most appreciable asset.” Dr. John C. Maxwell, my mentor, adds this caveat, “…only if leaders are developing them. Team members don’t get better unless leaders are pouring into them.”

If you want to maximize your leadership and help your organization reach its potential, you need to develop leaders. There is no other way to experience explosive growth.

I’M JESSICA JANNIERE

I'm Jessica Janniere, the Founder of Look Up and Beyond Inc. and a nationally recognized Adversity Expert and Certified Leadership, Speaker, Trainer & Coach.

My commitment to empowering educational leaders has led me to a national stage where our programs and initiatives are making a significant difference.

One of those stages is the South Regional Student Wellness Conference (SRSWC), hosted by the San Bernardino school district. The SRSWC, a well-attended and dynamic multi-day event, empowers educational partners, including mental health professionals, administrators, educators, school counselors, school safety staff, healthcare providers, and the community, to comprehensively address the needs of the whole child.

I am also a John Maxwell Certified Behavioral Analysis Consultant and Trainer- my expertise is in dissecting team dynamics and enhancing workplace culture to help create the ultimate workplace experience.

But beyond my professional titles and achievements, I am a former student of public schools in New York City. My children have also attended NYC public schools. During my formative years I faced incredible adversity at home and the education system became my sanctuary, and teachers, my guiding lights. 

When life seemed uncertain, the classroom offered not just lessons in textbooks but a refuge of kindness, guidance and hope. I discovered mentors who believed in my potential, even when I struggled to see it myself. School became more than an institution; it was the catalyst for my dreams and inspired my vision for a better future as I “looked up and beyond” my circumstances.

By inviting me into your school’s journey

here’s what you can anticipate…

  • Strength-Based Leadership Growth: We will highlight and harness the unique talents of your leaders, ensuring every individual feels recognized and integral to your school’s success.

  • Team Synergy: Together, we’ll create teams that are a fusion of shared vision and dynamic strengths, capable of achieving far beyond their individual capacities.

  • Cultural Flourishing: Our approach to DEI is about cultivating an environment rich in collaboration and mutual respect, where every day is a fresh opportunity for growth and affirmation. We develop a culture of values-driven leadership where everyone can thrive.

  • Sustainable Self-Care: We’ll integrate self-care into the DNA of your school, ensuring that every educator's resilience is as steadfast as their commitment to teaching.

And so much more!

The hopes you hold dear for your school community can be realized…

And I am here, ready to serve you.
