#LeadershipMatters #leaders

@mrbgilson Here's the thing... We address TEACHERS about this but for many students, there are district policies and state grading policies put into place insisting teachers assign homework. We have to stop addressing just teachers and start addressing systemic issues.

No matter what happens today, remember... You might not be able to control all of yours circumstance but you can control how you respond to them. Pause. Look for the good. Trust in a bigger plan. Respond instead of react.

Compassion brings strength to our minds by lessening fear, increasing confidence and so on. Doubts and irrational thinking decline. As a result, in the company of others the mind is relaxed, there are feelings of closeness, and we have a feeling that life has meaning and purpose.

Admin & Coaches, If back to school PD did any of the following, re-evaluate: 1. Made any staff member feel undervalued or threatened 2. Failed to spark inspiration for building relationships w/ students 3. Forced humans to be in uncomfortable situations 1/2

2/2 4. Praised data points, deadlines, & due dates 5. Left staff feeling like they just waisted their time

@AlainaTrott 🖤💛 Real leadership

“Build a team so strong it’s hard to identify who the boss is.” Servant leadership. Always. #rollupthemsleeves

😅

When we really think about leadership, isn’t it to support, encourage, appreciate, and inspire? Otherwise all you really have left is to boss people around or micromanage them.

Banning books featuring women's sexuality, questioning patriarchal norms, & creating women leaders isn't coincidentally aligned with the overturn of Roe. What kind of world will we allow for our daughters? She will gain knowledge, she will be empowered, she will not be controlled

She will gain knowledge, she will be empowered, she will not be controlled. #raisingleaders #raisingreaders #empowerment #empoweringwomen #womenempowerment #raisingthefuture #roevwade #bannedbooks #mychoice #literacyisfreedom

My platform to address all this is the classroom. I teach. I teach teachers. I train school leaders. We Please use your platforms and work in whatever field you are in to bring these truths to light. Speak truth to power in your votes and your work. Our society depends on it.

This is truth! 💯

This is why we need to go beyond the surface when a student exhibits a behavior. 🙌

When I am asked my number one piece of advice for a new administrator, it is simply to take care of your staff. If you take care of them, they will take care of the students. A culture of care, support, appreciation and encouragement is a culture when everyone can thrive.
