@matthew_arend No. Nope. No way.

[Suzanne Drotman @drotman_suzanne]

@ctopher73 @matthew_arend Oh, I thought it was obvious that those words were interchangeable. 😉

[Suzanne Drotman @drotman_suzanne]

@matthew_arend @ctopher73 It’d be cool to see him substitute teach for a few days.

@BMcCutcheon @TSAFFNews @IAFFNewsDesk The city of excellence always pulls through! @BMcCutcheon @cityofplanotx

[Suzanne Drotman @drotman_suzanne]

Truth.

[Patrick Lencioni @patricklencioni]

Think of an employee who lacks motivation.

How sure are you that that employee lacks motivation and not purpose?

Which is more likely? They don’t care about who they serve, or they don’t see how they’re serving?

Remind that person why they matter and see what happens.

@DrMattGutierrez Leader stress, it’s a thing!

[Suzanne Drotman @drotman_suzanne]

@Raj_Menon I guess it depends if you are the tweeter or tweetee.

Forgiveness is the day we let go of the rope. @Gerald_BrooksTX @grace_plano

[Suzanne Drotman @drotman_suzanne]

...and it’s never when you think it should be.

[Gerald_Brooks @Gerald_BrooksTX]

Growth is never convenient, but it is what leaders choose to do.

[Suzanne Drotman @drotman_suzanne]

Yes.Yes.Yes. It’s so simple and can make all the difference.

[Patrick Lencioni @patricklencioni]

When leaders fail to tell employees that they’re doing a great job, they might as well be taking money out of their pockets and throwing it into a fire.

NTFB is continuing our work across North Texas to help those affected by Sunday’s storm. Thank you to everyone who has reached out offering to lend a hand - Support from a giving community like you helps make our goal of providing for those who need it most easier! 🧡#fighthunger

[Suzanne Drotman @drotman_suzanne]

Profound!

[Gerald_Brooks @Gerald_BrooksTX]

People watch you long before they follow you, so if you couldn't say a word, would anyone want to follow you?

Fascinating perspective, some ideas are aspirational but definitely something to think about. #hr #people #culture

[Patrick Lencioni @patricklencioni]

The riskiest way to interview someone is from behind a desk.

[North Texas Food Bank @ntfb]

NTFB spent the day brainstorming new ideas to help feed our hungry neighbors, then had a fun-filled day at Adventure Landing as a reward for a successful fiscal year!
Special thank you to @dunkindonuts for donating food to help feed our staff this morning.

[Gerald_Brooks @Gerald_BrooksTX]

If what you expect of yourself isn't more than what others expect of you, then you are not leading.

Being smart doesn’t mean you can’t be dumb. #wisdom @Gerald_BrooksTX

[Suzanne Drotman @drotman_suzanne]

Truth.

[Patrick Lencioni @patricklencioni]

True leadership, the kind that results in the greater good, requires a level of selflessness and vision that most people simply don’t have.

[Suzanne Drotman @drotman_suzanne]

Yes!

[Tim Kight @TimothyKight]

Real leadership is hard. It requires great discipline & skill.

Command & control doesn’t take skill, because it’s not real leadership. It’s pseudo-leadership.

Loosen your grip. People & teams need to be led, not strangled. Micromanagement doesn’t work. Never has, never will.

Our Children’s Garden is in need of veggie themed painted rocks for our sensory walking path! Rocks can be dropped off at the front desk of our Perot Family Campus.
Special shout out to @SJESDallas for helping us start our collection and for helping our garden grow! 🌻
