Rule #1 reminds us that we are the drivers of our bus and that we have the choice on how to react and who to let on our bus and impact our ride. This applies to many of the blocks of the school performance pyramid. Challenging the staff is a good one to point out because it will allow the leaders to see who is on their bus and we can help them see they need to make sure the right people are on THEIR bus.

Rule #2 reminds us of the need to have focus, a vision, and desire to achieve the goal.  Our role is to assist the schools we partner with to focus in on the tasks which will lead to achieving their goals - challenge the staff.  The desire and vision is there.

Have a roadmap; by developing an educated plan with key academic experts within the school and within our K12 team. Stick to the majority of the plan as best as you can for at least 3 years tweaking slightly when necessary. Make sure all team members are on board with the plan even when it is painful.  Jeannine

Rule 1 reiterated that while we lean on regional teams for their ultimate approval and partnership, we are in control of driving the bus and informing schools. We can impact their attitudes, fidelity to implementation, and should take ownership for our schools.

When Joy missed the bus on Tuesday to care for her father, George didn't realize that someone else had challenges.  Everything is not always as it seems.  Everyone has problems however, you are the driver and can decide how to face your challenges. If you know where a person is starting from, I think it is easier to engage them.

Rule #2 is aligned with the Harvard Business Review article.  The article outlines the key building blocks that lead to school turnaround and improvement.
Likewise, our Continuous School Improvement plans are very focused on fewer and specific goals that we believe will be key benchmarks towards meeting the school's vision of success (set by the schools and their stakeholders).

As I am working with school leaders in professional development sessions especially new leaders, I want them to have the main take away that it is their job to create the environment of success and sometimes that is through challenge and change.

Much like an athlete you have to visualize the finish line or in this case the change. Can you see the change put in place and the results of the change?

As often as I can, I like to incorporate the 5 why's for problem solving.. it also helps you to focus on the main thing and not chase symptoms and keeps the energy positively focused on the real issue

Too often our schools are distracted by the soup de jour or something shiny. Paired with #1, we can remember that we can help control ourselves and our schools to focusing on important outcomes--not the latest fire drill. Having a mission, goal, vision written down helps realign individuals when they go down the rabbit trail...

Rule #2 spoke a lot about vision and focusing on best performances, things that can be changed; this directly correlates to challenging the staff.

Rule #7 reminds us that enthusiasm attracts passengers and keeps them energized.  Our role supporting schools involves motivation throughout the year for the relentless pursuit of achieving academic excellence.  Enthusiasm is contagious and if we demonstrate that energy about their School Improvement goals, then there's no choice but to participate and commit entirely."You haven't failed until you stop trying."
