When the adults in a #school acknowledge & greet each other kindly & genuinely, it’s a clear modeling & example for #students to do the same to their fellow classmates.

This is #culture building one salutation at a time.

Overheard this gem from a teacher - "My content isn't as important as them being better people at the end of the year." I'm on board with that. :)

I say this to parents at school. The fat tech cats make their billions off you giving your children the latest tech gadget while they fill their houses with books.

Two years ago, I was saying “do you have any questions?”. Last year I switched to “what questions do you have?” It made a difference. Today I tried “ask me two questions”. And they did! And those ?s led to more ?s. It amazes me that the littlest things have such a big impact!

8 easy ways to positively impact #culture:

1). Greet people
2). Say please and thank you
3). Don’t micromanage
4). Share credit
5). Own failure
6). Be humble
7). Always be kind
8). Apologize

Great teams are honest with each other.

Great teams encourage alternate perspectives.

Great teams allow all voices to be heard.

Great teams operate in an environment where each member makes other members better.

Teacher just quoted this to me... “Being average means you are as close to the bottom as you are to the top”- John Wooden... I greatly appreciate teachers who maintain high expectations and never settle for anything less than our student’s best. Mover and shakers, never let up
