@w_jankovic These are great ways for effective principals to show their commitment to staff capacity building. #GSUEdLead

[LaTonya D. @Int3llectIvy]

@SciEdSpecialist When you couple quality feedback with a genuine relationship of trust, staff capacity is increased. #GSUEdLead

[LaTonya D. @Int3llectIvy]

Effective principals place a premium on trust and care of staff which will lead to enhanced academic achievement for students. #GSUEdLead

[LaTonya D. @Int3llectIvy]

@LawrenMGSU Agreed! The connection students feel when they see someone that looks like them is not quantifiable, but it 100% makes a difference. #GSUEdLead

[LaTonya D. @Int3llectIvy]

@w_jankovic Yes, strong leadership is critical in shaping a learning environment. Imagine the success of students if we invest in both principals and teachers. #GSUEdlead

[LaTonya D. @Int3llectIvy]

Principals impact student outcomes indirectly, thus through mediation. This suggests that there is a place for influence within mediation. #GSUEdLead

[LaTonya D. @Int3llectIvy]

@techatgalloway @3rdwithUnger Agreed. Additionally, once they diversify their pools, they need to have a support plan that meets the needs of all leaders.

[LaTonya D. @Int3llectIvy]

@FeldwoodCST @3rdwithUnger Agreed! Administrative support and development is critical. While we prioritize student achievement, we need to keep a pulse check on leadership support and development.

[LaTonya D. @Int3llectIvy]

The role of the principal has changed through various policy changes. The goal of student achievement remains. The principalship is more diverse and highly-degreed. We must diversify the literature and training programs for education programs to represent this change. #GSUEDLead

[LaTonya D. @Int3llectIvy]

@LilLiteracyLady Hi Kelsey! Reflection is critical in our work as capacity builders. I like that your resource approaches reflection through goal obtainment. #GSUEdLead

[LaTonya D. @Int3llectIvy]

@coachingharrell @mbs_works It's good to see you again, Jeff. Your book suggestion intrigues me as I continue adding to my coaching toolbox. I need to check it out.

[LaTonya D. @Int3llectIvy]

Hi, LaTonya Davis here. I'm a Program Specialist at FCS in the Ed.S Tier II program. A book that has influenced my leadership has been Simon Sinek’s Start with Why. Knowing the why behind your actions is important to move your team towards a lasting impact. #GSUEdLead
