Incredibly honored to work with the Ohio Strengths Collaborative and my @ecoesc colleagues. What a great day of highlighting using CliftonStrength with staff and students. #strongnotwrong
Pardon my blatant bias but watching my youngest prepare for her 1st day as a 2nd grade teacher (today) has reminded me:
1. How much work teachers put in over the summer.
2. How willing they are to spend their own $ for their kids.
3. How much their hearts are “all in”.
This makes me think of CliftonStrengths from Gallup. Why? Everyone is unique. What if education was about knowing what people did well and focused on helping students capitalize on those strengths? #OHStrenghtsCollaborative#StrongnotWrong
We don't need to debate whether it's better to be a generalist or a specialist. The world needs both.
Specialists excel at zooming in. They see the details to deepen our knowledge.
Generalists excel at zooming out. They see around corners to broaden our view.
What a cool story! A tip of the hat to this young man and his parents!
