What are your initial reactions/thoughts about the Golden Circle? by Ayanna` Carter https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks en-us 2021-09-27 17:16:11 UTC 2023-09-20 22:45:01 UTC hello@padlet.com My original thought is that everything is centered around the 'why' for a reason. Our values are at the core of our practices, which in turn, draw the results that we encourage to come to fruition. https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713535547 2023-09-20 22:15:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713535547 The Why should be @ the center of everything we do, it will help us as leaders communicate the purpose and values that drive our vision. A roadblock that comes to mind is resources. https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713535744 2023-09-20 22:16:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713535744 Golden Circle lalibertea6 https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713535746 The fact that the shape is a circle (instead of a triangle) makes sense to me. The why leads to the how which leads to the what. That cycle, or circle comes around again - the what then drives the conversation back to the why, and so on. I also like that the circle has all this space for freedom of thought.

It's interesting to think about the roles of leaders and the outcome of student progress as circles within each other and not something linear (if- then line). https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713535756 Maura]]> 2023-09-20 22:16:23 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713535756 I am making strong connections to this because I was JUST in a PD yesterday (with Maura), and we were talking about this exact idea. Our beliefs / mindframes drive our behavior / our practices, which should be well thought out and deliberate, and that all drives how students achieve & progress. *Keri https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713535846 2023-09-20 22:16:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713535846 https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713535878 I agree that our beliefs, our purpose, the reason why we are in schools drive. This will lead to what practices we use and also help us with what practices do we want to hone.  When using effective practices it is important that we get those innovators on board to spread the information. In turn, that will lead to positive results with staff and students.  It made me think of Kim's comments about the domino effect. -Catherine

What are our core beliefs? This will drive much of our decision making. -Tracey https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713536011 After watching the video, I am realizing how important it is to think about your WHY and have your staff understand your why. When your teachers see what is important to you and what you want for the students, staff, and school, they will understand your why and want to get on board.]]> 2023-09-20 22:16:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713536011 Golden Circle cantonucci234 https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713536019 My initial thoughts/reactions about the Golden circle emphasize the importance of minddframes and beliefs, being at the center. As the circle extends, the more people are impacted. ]]> 2023-09-20 22:16:54 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713536019 My initial thoughts reflect the power of being in the right mind frame for leadership. Without that, the practices and outcomes can be hindered. kvanwartatkinson https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713536218 2023-09-20 22:17:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713536218 Initial thoughts https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713536287 I think it's important to see that student progress and achievement has be grounded with the "how", or through data and meaningful practices. I also like that the core is why we believe what we do, which is centered on student progress. After watching the video, it is so important to live and breathe the why in order for everyone (staff, students, parents, community) to buy into your mission. Only then will your your how and what be realized and come to life -Mikey]]> 2023-09-20 22:17:12 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713536287 Our belief in our abilities to make change should always remain the center of our focus as we strive to bring about change in any future leadership role. https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713536355 2023-09-20 22:17:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713536355 To add on - this idea of getting to the people who love to be first - they are the key, because I agree that if ideas are always coming from leadership, teachers may not buy in as easily as they will if it's coming from a colleague, another teacher who has tried something new and has found success. -Keri https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713551178 2023-09-20 22:44:57 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannahenry/Bookmarks/wish/2713551178
