8 major roles as a principal: a learner, a culture builder, an advocate, a leader, a mentor, a supervisor, a manager, and a politician. -- Zepeda, Parylo & Bengtson such a good summary of principal roles. Don't separate them if you want to call yourself a good leader. #EDLR5402
My #edlr5402 takeaway: Administration can be an isolating job, but we must work together throughout the state and stay connected, especially in regards to social justice. Lots of action just to check boxes but we need a consistent plan!!
.This is extremely powerful and critically important for our young people AND our staff! Dale Carnegie wrote “A person's name is to that person the sweetest and most important sound in any language.” I try never to forget that. #EDLR5402#ELASCD
"Good intentions does not mean that there may not be subconscious bias involved" @ErinnLFallon great point in class, this can definitely leave a lasting impression that may be adverse to one's intent. #EDLR5402
As leaders, you need to consider the cultures and backgrounds of your staff greatly. The smallest things you don't worry about, could be the biggest to someone else. Understand your people. #EDLR5402
