Leadership is not about pulling people to follow your path. It's about shining enough light for them to find their own route.
Bosses aim to wield power. They issue commands to maintain control.
Leaders strive to empower. They delegate authority to unleash potential.

It's time for us to move to a 32-hour work week with no loss in pay. Technology and worker productivity has exploded in recent years. That transformation should benefit all, not just the few. It should create more time for friends, for family, for rest, and for relaxation.
There are teachers who are strong, highly motivated, and who like to take ideas and run with them and speak up when things aren’t working. Effective leaders embrace these teachers because they make the whole team better!
3 expectations to help set the professional tone for your school culture.
1) Be your Best, whatever your role, do your best
2) No Surprises. If something is wrong, I want to hear it from you, not grapevine
3) We support each other. We're a team, not competitors.
Too many teachers who can’t speak out about anything, cant share their honest views openly, can’t be themselves. Have to embrace the fakery, play the game or lose their standing. Can’t speak the truth or share their opinions, often v experienced staff. The system is broken but the ppl who can help to change it are often silenced.
