I'm giving away a personalized pre-order copy of ODDER from my local indie, @ChildrensBW_LA.
RT & follow to enter! I'll pick a random winner on 8/8.
If it's not your week, I'll be doing the same thing each Saturday until the book's release. Or should that be Sotterday? 🦦💙
I was trying to figure out why this year has been the best one of my career. It’s not the positional power. It’s the freaking laughter.
Surround yourself with people that make you LAUGH!
Those who can’t manipulate you will call you “rebellious”
Those who can’t control you will call you “difficult”
Those who can’t abuse you will call you “unforgiving”
Those who can’t silence you will call an “antagonist”
Courage.
I’ve learned a lot of things as a principal… but the big one is this: Teachers are the most important resource in the school. They need to be supported, encouraged, and celebrated. They drive the school.
The picture of a leader:
- Potential leaders make things happen.
- Potential leaders influence others.
- Potential leaders think differently than followers.
- Potential leaders possess strong relational skills.
- Potential leaders add value to others.
