Listen, learn, re-think and do something that matters (build trusting relationships is always key)]]> 2017-08-31 02:22:17 UTC https://padlet.com/scottmcleod/20170830nm2/wish/183850217 https://padlet.com/scottmcleod/20170830nm2/wish/183850222 takeaways...
In a leadership role it is vital for you to live and breathe the culture, mission, vision.

Our vision should help us clarify ways to achieve that/those missions. We should have actions that we take decisively and intentionally to get to -- or closer to our mission.

It is what we do every day. It is what drives the instruction. It is what we are assessing when we look at our instruction.

Also, Law of Unintended Consequences didn't even come up. What is the worst consequence of our best idea?]]> 2017-08-31 02:22:33 UTC https://padlet.com/scottmcleod/20170830nm2/wish/183850265 https://padlet.com/scottmcleod/20170830nm2/wish/183850273 Creating internal accountability around M and V statements is critical lest they become worthless. Can the community help?

This leads to internal accountability. If you don't tie mission/vision to specific behaviors it leads to frustration. Focus on what is working (the positives) to drive change rather than highlight who is not engaged.]]> 2017-08-31 02:22:45 UTC https://padlet.com/scottmcleod/20170830nm2/wish/183850280 https://padlet.com/scottmcleod/20170830nm2/wish/183850321 2017-08-31 02:23:03 UTC https://padlet.com/scottmcleod/20170830nm2/wish/183850321 https://padlet.com/scottmcleod/20170830nm2/wish/183850329 Mission and vision need to be clear or why bother. Why don't we have a mission statement as an umbrella for the district with options (principles) for the schools to choose from? ]]> 2017-08-31 02:23:07 UTC https://padlet.com/scottmcleod/20170830nm2/wish/183850329 https://padlet.com/scottmcleod/20170830nm2/wish/183850345 What is the ultimate purpose of vision and mission. Are the action based? And if so then are they updated when those actions have been addressed or accompished. Are our actions the same as our aspirations?]]> 2017-08-31 02:23:18 UTC https://padlet.com/scottmcleod/20170830nm2/wish/183850345
