Emphasize the end results

Data Driven and Step-by-Step

2025-11-12 23:58:25 UTC

My principal is a guardian and driver. This is shaping my presentation as I intend to give a strong and clear purpose to begin, start with data, focus on a step-by-step process, and leave time to open the floor with tough questions.

2025-11-12 23:58:27 UTC

Honest and direct while emphasizing the long-term goal.

2025-11-12 23:58:27 UTC

To ensure alignment and clarity, I will stamp the key indicators (data) so that my school leader can see the end result of my initiative and how it will benefit us as a whole.

being clear, giving the plan of action, and demonstrating what success looks like

2025-11-12 23:58:43 UTC

Since my principal is a driver, I will anticipate and plan for objections and questions.

2025-11-12 23:59:00 UTC

Know your Audience

2025-11-12 23:59:01 UTC

I am a teacher, my friends are teachers and my peers are teachers.

2025-11-12 23:59:01 UTC

Provide a handout ahead of time, have clear communication, allow time for clarifying questions, and reiterate CAP alignment

Keep it Simple

2025-11-12 23:59:01 UTC

The business chemistry of my principal is to keep things simple, high level, but then if needed answer any questions in depth. This allows her to process the information presented but also not have to worry about implementation

2025-11-12 23:59:02 UTC

My principal and I have got the same business chemistry results. So when speaking with her about my plan, I will include a handout and make sure I provide data to back up and support why I chose this as my campus initiative plan.

Pioneer-Driver

2025-11-12 23:59:03 UTC

I will have to tone down some of the pioneer characteristics to be concise with clear and positive language in time-limited presentation.

p00221698 — 2025-11-12 23:59:03 UTC

Concise, creative, data driven

2025-11-12 23:59:03 UTC

Presenting to my team first to see if they have any questions I can think through before presenting to my principal

2025-11-12 23:59:06 UTC

Both my principal and I are P/D, so I would paint a picture of the outcome while highlighting benefits and the measurable impact.

2025-11-12 23:59:07 UTC

Consider all stakeholders and assets, ways we can utilize the community resources

Chemistry Alignment

2025-11-12 23:59:07 UTC

Knowing that my principal is most likely a Driver/Guardian and that I am a Pioneer/Integrator, I will need to position my initiative with strong emphasis on the outcomes, with evidence. My principal is all about a plan of action and data - I will need to twist my way of thinking towards his.

2025-11-12 23:59:11 UTC

for my guardian principal, I will include the impact the program has had on other campuses. I will also plan ahead for her many questions.

2025-11-12 23:59:12 UTC

step-by-step plan, clarification of logistics, possibly hard-copy of presentation content

2025-11-12 23:59:13 UTC

As a guardian, I will ensure that I'm thorough when I explain my initiative. Since my principal is a driver, I will include reasons why this is necessary and also mention the potential positive results.

2025-11-12 23:59:13 UTC

Matter-of-fact, forward, conversations that solution and results-oriented plan.

I am a driver. I will over practice every aspect of the conversation. I will likely practice a script a number of times. Practice with AI, and use AI to help anticipate questions.

p00159017 — 2025-11-12 23:59:16 UTC

2025-11-12 23:59:24 UTC

My principal likes detail of the plan, especially if the plans do not go as planned. I will ensure that I have a secondary plan of action for possible hiccups.

Give more emphasize on the result and give assurance to the principal that this activity is for the benefit of the school and the students persee.

2025-11-12 23:59:28 UTC

Step by step format backed up by data.

2025-11-12 23:59:30 UTC

Come prepared by knowing exactly what and how you are going to present the information and be ready to answer any follow up questions the admin may have about the initiative.

2025-11-12 23:59:31 UTC

2025-11-12 23:59:34 UTC

I need to be clear and emphasize the importance of my plan.

Give the issues and how the campus plan will address those issues to clear up any misconception of the program and given expectations of the students in the program.

2025-11-12 23:59:39 UTC

2025-11-12 23:59:42 UTC

I have work with my administration for 2 years now, so I have a good idea on what each one is looking for. The principal wants to see the numbers and end result and my AP was to see how it effects the teachers and students.

Be prepared for questions, stick to key points. Really focus on a concise delivery that doesn't get muddied with details that are not important

2025-11-12 23:59:42 UTC

Driver

2025-11-12 23:59:42 UTC

Both my principal and I are drivers so I will focus on impact and outcomes

2025-11-12 23:59:43 UTC

We both care about building and protecting relationships. I will use this to hook her in the beginning of my presentation when addressing behavioral issues and how to fix them

We are both guardians, so I will focus on clear timelines and data to support the initiative for supplemental aids. Fortunately, I have data of how supplemental aids have improved my students, so this can support the idea that we should implement supports throughout our department.

2025-11-12 23:59:46 UTC

We are both guardians, so I will focus on clear timelines and data to support the initiative for supplemental aids. Fortunately, I have data of how supplemental aids have improved my students, so this can support the idea that we should implement supports throughout our department.

2025-11-12 23:59:47 UTC

2025-11-12 23:59:50 UTC

Build a good relationship with my principal to ensure alignment and clarity during my presentation.

2025-11-12 23:59:50 UTC

STRONG OPENING STATEMENT AND STARIGHT TO THE POINT.

Listen and take note to his suggestions

2025-11-12 23:59:58 UTC

I will use the Business Chemistry framework by focusing on connection, collaboration, and clarity when presenting my campus initiative. Since my principal is an Integrator, I’ll lead with “we” language, align the initiative to our campus goals, and emphasize teamwork and communication to ensure everyone feels included and informed.

2025-11-12 23:59:59 UTC

I believe my principal is a Driver. I would focus on how my plan would yield results by decreasing the achievement gap.

2025-11-13 00:00:07 UTC

Since she is a driver and I’m a pioneer, I will need to speed to the first positive results and the critical points of implementation instead of how I came up with it and how far it can go to help our future.

p00292576 — 2025-11-13 00:00:13 UTC

Concise and to the point-making sure it aligns with campus goals.

2025-11-13 00:00:16 UTC

Be Clear, provide the data and show the benefits of the results.

2025-11-13 00:00:19 UTC

Ensuring that I am clear!

2025-11-13 00:00:25 UTC

I need to have all of the information available for her to preview. I am in the Principal Cert. Program, and she stated that she needed work on Parent Engagement, so I chose an initiative that I knew she needed work on. I will need to keep information concise, to the point, and emphasizing how this will benefit the campus and fill the gap that she is seeing in the campus.

2025-11-13 00:00:34 UTC

Focus on the end results and showing the data

2025-11-13 00:00:36 UTC

I will make it straight to the point by highlighting the benefits to the overall success of the campus and use focus on wording centered around high-quality instruction and new teacher retention rates.

2025-11-13 00:00:42 UTC

Since we are both DRIVERS, I have no qualms in providing data, specifics, and how it integrates into our short and long term goals and supports multiple stakeholders. I am also a Pioneer, so my PASSION in terms of the creative aspects of initiative should serve as a motivator as well.

2025-11-13 00:00:43 UTC

To ensure alignment and clarity when presenting a campus initiative to my principal is to connect the plan to the campus goals and explain why it is needed. Also, by using clear data to support my message and outline key steps, timelines, and responsibilities.

2025-11-13 00:00:48 UTC

My principal are align as I inquired of her about some she was passionate about and we have sat down and look over the initiative

Business Chemistry

2025-11-13 00:00:50 UTC

I plan to leverage both styles by remaining focused on prioritizing the needs of our students and ensuring that that my plan has actionable steps that can be implemented with fidelity.

Open minded

2025-11-13 00:00:54 UTC

2025-11-13 00:01:05 UTC

I will share first with aps before

Since she is a driver and I’m a pioneer, I will need to speed to the first positive results and the critical points of implementation instead of how I came up with it and how far it can go to help our future.

2025-11-13 00:01:08 UTC

come with handout, provide data, and tracker chart, plan on how it benefits campus, role it plays in learning outcomes

2025-11-13 00:01:12 UTC

2025-11-13 00:01:29 UTC

We both are drivers. When presenting my initiative to improve attendance, I’ll start by clearly connecting it to student achievement and our campus goals.

at-bat with my AP who knows the principal very well

2025-11-13 00:01:37 UTC

2025-11-13 00:01:43 UTC

My principal is a pioneer. I will be open to modify parts of my initiative depending on her input.

2025-11-13 00:01:57 UTC

Make sure the data is present in the pitch and ties it to the SIP

2025-11-13 00:03:18 UTC

Include Benefits and Examples of end products

2025-11-13 00:24:20 UTC

will feedback be sent to us as well?

2025-11-13 00:24:30 UTC

Will demo day be during the entire day? Would we be able to sign up during a conference period?

Is this a high level overview since it's only 10 minutes. Or should we plan for our initiative to actually take 10 minutes?

2025-11-13 00:24:34 UTC

Demo Day

2025-11-13 00:24:40 UTC

Is the feedback that we receive a part of the 15 minutes or do we get to present for the entire 15 minutes?

How detailed does the demo need to be?

Should we build a presentation for the demo?

2025-11-13 00:24:42 UTC

2025-11-13 00:24:50 UTC

To be clear - we will not be watching others?

Questions

2025-11-13 00:24:58 UTC

Is it acceptable to record the session?

Presentation Medium

2025-11-13 00:25:08 UTC

Should we use powerpoint, google slides, and or canva

2025-11-13 00:25:34 UTC

If we have already presented to our admin team, do we still need to demo?

2025-11-13 00:25:38 UTC

Will admin be in the meeting as well?

clarification

2025-11-13 00:26:17 UTC

For clarification, this is a demo presentation of the campus initiative plan we created.

2025-11-13 00:26:17 UTC

Should our presentation to our principal be before the demo day or could it be after?

2025-11-13 00:26:19 UTC

should we make a presentation/ google slide? Or just talk about it. Can we use the TLA website to present?

p00221698 — 2025-11-13 00:27:46 UTC

What key aspects should we cover during the demo overview? Are there any specific areas we should prioritize?

If we need to present before December 1st, how early would you like us to inform TLA?

2025-11-13 00:32:48 UTC

2025-11-13 00:32:50 UTC

Is the rubric for our google site or for our presentation?

My principal has asked me to work with an AP. She would like to do it on 11/19. Do I need to reschedule?

p00159017 — 2025-11-13 00:32:52 UTC

2025-11-13 00:33:00 UTC

For joint campus initiatives, are we scored as one? Or individually based on how each of us present our designated slides?

Will principals use this rubric as well during our presentation?

2025-11-13 00:33:18 UTC

When I began discussing project ideas with my principal, she approved and asked me to begin immediately. What will my presentation look like given this?

2025-11-13 00:33:41 UTC

Are we presenting our initiative slides or our entire digital portfolio?

2025-11-13 00:33:41 UTC

Artifacts

2025-11-13 00:34:11 UTC

I am doing a community night with the goal of increasing enrollment. One of my colleagues, the digital design teacher, will be creating a flyer for the event. Can that be an artifact that is included later once it is ready?

What else would be considered an artifact for an initiative that is only happening for one night?

2025-11-13 00:34:15 UTC

Even if the principal wont be on the presentation, he is the one that have to submit the survey?

Just to clarify

2025-11-13 00:34:36 UTC

We do the presentation with the principal or the designee in person correct?

My group shared that they now have artifacts to share during an interview, they are seeing changes in their leadership of their teams, their views of leadership have helped shape their own time management. Just learned a lot about themselves, too.

2025-11-13 00:52:29 UTC

I have grown by taking on an initiative that will impact students outside of just my classroom. I'm very excited about having a portfolio that I can use to showcase my work as well.

2025-11-13 00:54:15 UTC

My group shared that we have grown in our support with technology, emotional intelligence, and thinking of ourselves beyond the classroom and facilitating meaningful conversations.

2025-11-13 00:54:22 UTC

The books Creativity, Inc. And Emotional Intelligence have been so relevant each and every day! And getting to sit alongside amazing teachers has been so invigorating!!!

Being able to slow down and intentionally analyze myself as a leader has been really valuable!

Learning more about admin

2025-11-13 00:55:36 UTC

At first I was interested in finding out about how I can be a leader among my peers but now I have broadened my horizons. Curriculum development has peaked my interest, as I have had to create Curriculum for a lot of the forgotten subjects that dont have a STAAR or AP exam and think that I can make an impact in the district in this area, by creating lessons that drive high quality instruction.

Finding A Path

I am now a more confident leader! I feel like I have found a real pathway to success in HISD!

The business chemistry has been very impactful on me as a leader and helps me understand my coworkers and team so much better.

Celebrating the small wins and being more patient with adults.

Seeing things from an admin point of view and what specialties they bring to the campus and learning how to structure hard conversations

Growth

2025-11-13 00:55:44 UTC

Biggest growth for myself through the TLA has been walking through classrooms with my principal and AP. I have already been observing and coaching teachers from the beginning of the school year, but being able to see their thought process has been very eye-opening. My goal is to become an Instructional Specialist so this has been extremely formative!

I’ve grown as a leader by learning to see through my admin team’s perspective understanding that evaluating others requires empathy, strong decisions, and clear communication. TLA has also shown me how much our campuses need committed hands willing to make our schools better places for both teachers and students.

I have learned new technical skills, as well as had a chance to experience people from all over the disctrict.

broadening my lens and understanding as a leader I need to look at things globally...not just my students.

It has showed me what HISD is specifically for their campus leadership.

Shared language

2025-11-13 00:56:02 UTC

The conversations we've had in TLA around Business Chemistry Styles have allowed for me to talk with my admin team about my strengths and weaknesses. One of my APs completed TLA, so we're speaking a common language. And this has allowed for me to be more receptive to feedback for my areas of weakness that I want to improve on with her support.

2025-11-13 00:56:12 UTC

I'm able to understand other people's perspectives a lot better. It's good to know how to approach others to get out point across in the most effective way possible.

Has exposed me to new things, ways to know me better and how can i use that to impact my community

Leadership Growth

2025-11-13 00:58:33 UTC

I’ve always been an overachiever, but I haven’t documented all of my efforts. TLA has helped me realize how important it is to document and share my work/resources more often.

I now ask for input, align people around shared goals, and respect others' Business Chemistry types.
