Failure of management is the substitution of process for substance.

Not only important to know what we are doing but also need to know why we are doing it.

Purposes are actions by the leadership to bring clarity and consensus regarding the fundamental purposes of the school and commitment to achieving goals.

This gave more purpose to what the team leaders were responsible for and created more ownership for those who hold these spots.]]> 2018-06-30 04:39:38 UTC https://padlet.com/crandell4973/z00nv62bm3zo/wish/269013770
