I plan on using this one DAY 1 for teams to see what type of member they are while also getting to know each other in a new way that facilitates a productive planning and collaboration.  Love it!

I will for sure be starting with the Compass Points because I need my team to see where they are and then understand where everyone on the team is. The importance of the different personalities/strengths is what will make them really successful.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a great skill for the worries that my teammates sometimes carry.

I will use the Circle of Influence, Norm setting and consensus building

I will use this with both my students and my team.  It reminds me of an exercise I've done before called Drop the Cup.  Everyone stands up is is given a cup.  They are told to hold their arm out straight and hold the cup.  The only rule is they can drop the cup at any time.  People automatically join one of two camps - those that drop it and sit down and those who compete against one another to hold out the longest. .  The idea is that they have told control to let go, but we often hold on to things that become painful to us.  All throughout the year we can return to this idea by simply looking at one another and reminding us to drop the cup.  (I hope I explained that so that it makes sense.)

I want to do the pet peeves transformation into norms by restructuring them into positive based statements, I want to continue the "avocado" of control and definitely use compass points not just for the beginning of the year but so I can look back at them when situations arise.

team planning was not always as efficient as I would like. With the pandemic I understood the need to be scaled back on what I was asking of the teams as there was so much on their plates. Beginning this year though, things will be much more structured as to ensure proper planning. Luckily all the teams should be supportive of these changes

# data[].attributes.body
We struggled! I would like to help my team be more productive by making roles/norms clear and that communication is honest, respectful and promotes first time quality instruction.

# data[].attributes.body
Meetings were not very productive when there is not an agenda. No focus.

# data[].attributes.body
Our meetings last year were not as effective as they could have been. Most of the time last year was spent putting a Band-Aid on the Grand Canyon so to speak. Often the relationship aspects and the hearing people needed to take priority over the tasks.

As a leader, I can keep a good balance between the relationship and task goals. This coming year there needs to be an agenda and more collaboration as we a wealth of opportunities to reach our learns and gaps to fill.

# data[].attributes.body
A lot of negativity and off topic conversations happened on my team last year. A lot of vent sessions rather than productive meetings. I look forward to having an agenda to stick to and having those conversations before hand if needed. I also plan to really drive those norms in. We had too many and they weren’t respected or followed.

# data[].attributes.headline
Send of an agenda ahead of time, start and end on time, allow for anyone to add to the meeting or share any concerns sometime during the meeting, kind of an open forum for discussion and close out with a recap of meeting.

Give team members a chance to follow up on the meeting to receive input.

# data[].attributes.body
Certain grade level meetings were not as effective due to the lack of relationship building having zoom meetings. Going back face to face will help strengthen those meetings by making sure to incorporate more relationship building.

# data[].attributes.body
My team meetings have been lacking minutes and I think they would be helpful to have next year.

Sometimes in the meetings we get too worried about hurting others feelings that we forget the purpose of the meeting.

Moving forward I think it is important to ensure that all of these components are set from the beginning. This will help ensure the success of the year. Having a clear agenda will help all participants have a purpose.

# data[].attributes.headline
Making sure to get the Agenda out ahead of time. And try to reflect on the previous week.

Our meetings were usually effective.   Our agenda really didn't change because we had very structured meetings and knew what we needed to get done. When we got off task our North always brought us back to what we needed to get done.

# data[].attributes.body
When there wasn't balance in our team meeting and shared responsibilities for the tasks, the team meetings weren't productive and levels of anxiety increased.

# data[].attributes.body
Our meeting  lacked relationship building. There were so many who dont know each other. It was focused more on task. Which took away unification. As a leader, I would like to incorporate more relationship building along with the tasks

# data[].attributes.body
Meetings were scheduled and the agenda was created ahead of time as a living document that all team members could access any time, as well as add to before the meeting.
There was a member or two who didn't want to engage with the group and it was like pulling teeth!

# data[].attributes.headline
My meetings had agenda, norms set up and communicated early on. But it was more of dispensing information but not much of "processing information and developing shared meaning." And definitely need to work on process strategies.

# data[].attributes.body
The most effective meetings that had a real impact were followed up in some way. If not,the topic was forgotten or lacked any action.

# data[].attributes.body
I want to be better at ensuring follow up and reflection time.  We seemed to move from one task to another without too much reflection on what went well and what didn't.

# data[].attributes.body
There was a lot of frustration and negative energy when components were lacking. To prevent this, I need to BE PREPARED, have & stick to an agenda, limit off-topic conversation when there is work that needs to be done.

# data[].attributes.body
In looking back at last years team meetings together we were results results oriented, reinforced the focus, definitely social, we encouraged each other. However, I do feel we did not follow up or reflect on our learnings/teachings as much.

# data[].attributes.body
Last year most of my department meetings definitely lacked a few of these important components. I hope to bring more structure to next year's meetings by having an equal balance between the task(s) at hand as well as the relationship aspect.

# data[].attributes.body
Our team meetings had an agenda but we would spend time talking about other things. This did not allow for good time management.

# data[].attributes.body
Last year, our team meetings were very inconsistent in their effectiveness and efficiency. There were days when we would accomplish a lot and others where they would just devolve into arguing.

# data[].attributes.body
Our team meetings were effective, but could get stuck on one topic more often than not. I will have to be more purposeful in setting time parameters if needed.

# data[].attributes.body
Our team meetings last year were generally goal oriented and not relationship oriented because we had so many teachers out at any given time due to covid. At one point only 3 of the 7 teachers were actually at school for an extended period of time. That meant that the three of us that were there were constantly putting out "fires". I pray for fewer "fires" this year.

# data[].attributes.body
Team meetings were ineffective whenever they did not welcome collaboration. It sometimes seemed like it was a "star of the show" meeting.
As a leader, I would help facilitate these meetings by providing roles and norms that all participants agreed upon that welcomed opinions and ideas from everyone.

# data[].attributes.headline
Send out an agenda ahead of time. Start on time and end on time. Allow for member to add or reflect, kind of an open session for everyone to share a concern or accomplishment before wrapping up. Close with a recap.

I would say that our team needed an agenda to stay on task and people needed to be more active when it came to conversations about topics.

# data[].attributes.body
As a leader I plan on being more reflective of my own practices by following up and checking in with our teams.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Last year our meetings lacked meaningful structure. Sometimes we had an agenda, and sadly sometimes we did not.
2. This year I want to improve our meetings by ensuring we are results focused, which I believe having an agenda will assist with, and I will ensure follow up on decisions that are made.
