Our business management consulting company was founded by Kwame Simmons, Sr., a nationally recognized educator with over 20 years experience working in districts and leading schools in need of transformation. It was the rollercoaster of experiences in schools that motivated Simmons to research how business models have solved similar challenges. He quickly realized what he was facing, in leading school transformation, was an adaptive challenge that transcends industries.
At The Simmons Advantage, we specialize in driving transformational change through our three core departments. Whether you’re seeking to reimagine systems, empower leaders, or prepare special populations for success, TSA provides tailored solutions to help schools and districts thrive.
Empowering leaders with the skills and confidence to inspire teams and drive meaningful change through coaching, retreats, and leadership development programs.
We inspire leaders to engage within the organization by planning for the future with wisdom, context and imagination. By using emotional intelligence to motivate team members, leaders will impact the company in a manner that supports organizational outcomes.
Creating inclusive pathways to education and workforce readiness for students with special needs, English Language Learners, and gifted students.
Simmons Advantage has provided strong leadership development sessions and coaching for leaders on my team. Kwame’s background and skills were key in helping us design training experiences that led to improved team performance.
I had the privilege of having Kwame as my executive coach for two months in late 2020. During a tumultuous year, Kwame’s ability to connect on a personal level while imparting his professional wisdom helped me feel less alone as he served as an important sounding board for new program model ideas, shifting organizational priorities and staff development.
Appreciative of The Simmons Advantage Team’s executive coaching and leadership facilitation skills for seamlessly aligning credible research and theory, with culturally relevant practitioner-based approaches to improve student achievement and inform teacher and leader practice.
Our work with Kwame Simmons has helped our staff develop a more comprehensive way of looking at school-wide data. We engaged with Simmons Advantage to facilitate a collective discussion around using data to ensure a more equitable learning community. His approach of engaging staff in self-reflection and a systematic method of data analysis have been beneficial in uncovering unconscious inequities in basic operations and beginning conversations about how to overcome them.
