How to Create a Research-Based Executive Functioning Implementation Plan for Your School Team

Ever feel like your school is trying all the “right” strategies—social skills groups, planners, behavior charts—but students still struggle with time management, motivation, and peer relationships?

You’re not alone—and there’s a reason why.

This episode is a clip from my free training, “Create a Research-Based Implementation Plan for your School Team.”

It’s designed for school leaders who want to guide their teams in embedding executive functioning support across both general and special education settings—without burning out staff.


This episode is for you if you’re ready to:

✔️ Help students truly benefit from academic instruction
✔️ Support social-emotional growth alongside learning
✔️ Avoid overwhelming your team with another “initiative”

In the training, I'll reveal:

✅Why social skills groups fall flat—and how to really boost students’ emotional regulation and peer connections.

✅The truth about planners, lists, and behavior charts—and why they’re not improving student’s time management or motivation.

✅The 3 key elements school teams need to support executive functioning across gen ed and special ed—without burning out your staff (in this episode, I share element #1).

This episode is the first half of the training in audio format, but to view the whole training with the video, you can go to drkarendudekbrannan.com/efteams.
