@FeldwoodCST @GSUEdLead I agree that effective Principals need to be able to do it all. I think the productive climate aspect sums up everything. Without this, the other aspects will struggle...and students may struggle too.

[FCS Science @FCS_Science]

@CatieSimpson47 Definitely! I think an open door is important too, but creating a safe environment in the school for the learning of all students is indeed imperative.

Cultivating trust is a critical skill for a Principal. Trust from a Principal down throughout a school positively affects student performance. Teachers who feel empowered have high levels of trust with their Principals!

@pekatos I agree 100%. So many good teachers leave our profession, but a strong Principal will recruit, and retain teachers through continued development and support for all their staff, especially their teachers.

[FCS Science @FCS_Science]

@BPeducates @GSUEdLead Yes! I think Principals who shape the learning environment accordingly, allow all their students the opportunity to succeed!

From a Science background, I love Grissom, Egalyte, & Lindsay's empirical approach at assessing the effect of a Principal (2021). The gains in student achievement by a great building leader are clearly evident in multiple studies.

@CatieSimpson47 Quality teacher retention is so important! I think strong leaders must create the support structure to keep their teachers while advancing all student achievement.

[FCS Science @FCS_Science]

@EbonyBetts99 Agreed! All students benefit when strong leaders guide and collaborate, and look at the data to drive this.

[FCS Science @FCS_Science]

Policies have shifted Leadership focus! Now, (2015-) the PSELs direct Leader attention to data for all, including the underrepresented, & the diversity in student learning...equity!

@pekatos Great Communication and Strong relationships are essential for Leadership in Education, and all things at all levels of K-12 Education! Another book for my reading list...

[FCS Science @FCS_Science]

@CatieSimpson47 I have heard much about this book too. I will definitively be reading it soon as I look to support schools in their Science teacher retention for next year.

[FCS Science @FCS_Science]

Happy New Year #GSUEdlead!
Steven Moody, Science Director, FCS. One book that I recommend for all is Mindset, The New Psychology of Success.

A great book for all aspect of life as well as Education that focusses on the 'not yet'!

@coachingharrell Wow, powerful post!

I had not really thought of creating that environment. I do not not think I have but I will be checking...thanks Jeff!

[FCS Science @FCS_Science]

@EbonyBetts99 I agree that Leadership can feel isolating...and that focusing on those we lead, and their success is paramount; great post!

Great post about how quickly you respond and how others judge your sincerity!

A study shows that delaying an answer can be judged less sincere by others; even a brief pause made people seem less genuine. #GSUEdLead

@critlit1970 @YouTube I like that AI holds a promise in narrowing inequality gaps! So, yes...I agree.

[FCS Science @FCS_Science]

@d_kinoshita1 I totally agree! It can so easily be seen as unruly even if meant with the best intentions. I think at least finding out the why in the workplace is essential.

The Four-Item Rule: Why Your Brain Loves Groups of Four.

Parts of the brain dealing with numbers >5 are not selective....1-4 part is very selective. Group info into 4s or less! #GSUEdLead

@FeldwoodCST @GSUEdLead I totally agree that we need to hear all the voices from all the stakeholders in order to make the right decision(s). I think we also need to be the voice for some stakeholders that may not be heard by all.
