Practice what you preach.... model, model, model.  Be mindful of  what you say, what your nonverbals say for you, and what you post on your social media accounts.

As adults we need to practice what we preach to students.  When our classroom environments change we want students to change behavior.  We as adults need to extend the same courtesy to our colleagues.  As things change in the education world and our district we need to adapt and change our behavior, alter the path, take out the obstacles, whatever.  If we are positive about these moves and changes, we can rally the herd(aka the staff) to change with us. we do have to own it and lead it.
