Welcome to another epic year. I figured it out, and I want you to figure it out, too. Happy people outperform unhappy people. How do I get to that happy place? Climate and culture have a profound impact on student and teacher performance. Leadership has a profound impact on climate and culture. An essential component of your repertoire will be to create as many leaders as possible.

Get rid of that follower model. Flip the pyramid to give opportunities for the nontraditional leaders. Leadership has been moving along a different paradigm for decades. So why are some people still using the old model? We need more ideas from the heretics, outliers, and disruptors. Bring them on board. Allow them to look in the mirror differently. Let them bring people to the table that you do not even know exist.

Conclusion

By creating more leaders, your leadership ability increases exponentially. Everyone deserves opportunities for leadership. Bring in those nontraditional leaders in order to throw out the follower model. Some people do not see themselves as leaders. Change their perception.

I hope this is your best school year ever. Make it happen! Climate and culture begin with your attitude. Leadership begins with a choice. Be epic not ordinary!
