All feedback should be supportive feedback. Whether providing praise or actions for correction, feedback should support the person receiving it. It's the only way to sustain a culture of transformation, trust, & positivity. #CandorAndCompassion #Feedback

Leaders, If you think that you've successfully duped the people, the truth is that you're duped into thinking that you've duped the people. They know, they're just not telling you that they know. Honesty and transparency matter. #Leadership

Leadership is less about what you know, and more about how you share it. It's not nearly as effective to know a lot and share a little as it is to know a little and share it all. #Leadership

True leadership isn't about how much power you hold, but how much you give away. The best leaders don’t just build a following; they build more leaders. If your presence makes others stronger, you’re doing it right.

Great leaders are always finding ways to get stronger. They use their strength to lift others. #Leadership

@tjvari @AASAHQ I'm interested in all of those groups, but let's start with students.

Using AI in education is a must, but it has to stay human-centered. Check out this episode of the Conference Daily Podcast, brought to you by @AASAHQ. #AASA #NCE2026 #AI #SchoolLeadership nce.aasa.org/conference-dai…

@JAustinEDU @AASAHQ Which perspective should I take? For students, teachers, or admin?

@tjvari @AASAHQ Can you explain why using AI in education is a "must" from your perspective? What are some other "musts" you believe in?
