Great leaders do not procrastinate when facing a tough decision. They understand that not everyone will be happy with their decisions. And they don’t have to gather 100 percent of information available to ensure that these decisions are the best ones possible.

[Wade Stanford @wadestanford]

Great leaders don’t allow the noise to distract them. They make decisions & move on, even when others are filling the space with untruths. Be great today!

Excellence is a process.

[Terry Grier @tgrierhisd]

Being a boss and a leader are not the same thing. A boss focuses on procedures, compliance and the status quo. A leader, on the other hand, motivates people to embrace change, create new ways of doing things and grow as a team. A boss has followers. A leader has colleagues.

Iowa high school principal Dan Marburger, who engaged a shooter to give his students time to escape earlier this month, has died of his injuries. Thinking of his family and Perry Community School today; he'd served the kids in Perry for over 25 years. He is a hero. #RIP @NASSP

The best leaders with whom I worked with were always willing to quickly change their minds about what they thought they knew. They always focused on what’s right, versus who is right. They could leave their egos at the door.

I have the greatest job in the world. Being a principal is not just a job, it is a mission!

“When I was a principal at Newark Tech, if I was standing in front of the school during student dismissal, I would sometimes direct my students' attention to the sign on the front of the building. "Read the sign aloud," I would say, and they would respond, "Newark Tech." I would then ask them if they could see anything else. "There is another name there, but you don't see it," I'd say. "There is an invisible sign, and it reads ‘Principal Kafele.’" You see, I was well aware that if my school was underperforming, then the community would see me, the principal, as a failure. I therefore accepted that, as principal, I was the number-one determinant of the success or failure of Newark Tech. The school was going to go as I went.

The exact same principle applies to you as the classroom teacher. Your name is on that classroom door—literally, in most cases. That is your classroom. You are the one who determines outcomes in that classroom. You are the one who creates scholars in that classroom “who creates hope, who lets dreams flourish, who keeps negative influences from entering the room. You remind your students constantly that where they are now doesn't necessarily determine where they will wind up later.”

“The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not a bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly.”
– Jim Rohn

Just heard this and agree, as this has been my experience 100% — The loudest person in the room has A. The most to hide and B. The least substance and intelligence of anyone in the room. If you’re annoyed by this then you’re probably that person.
