Colleagues,
MVP: Take stock of how your organization did this fall Leadership is hard, but ultimately it is simple. Want better outcomes for kids? Support and grow your teachers. Want better outcomes for patients? Support and grow your nurses. Want better outcomes for your customers? Support and grow your salespeople. The question: Today, is your organization creating better outcomes for those you serve than it was in September? If the answer is yes, let’s celebrate and identify the specific things leaders did to foster that growth.

My early Christmas gift to you is a handy little guide of five practices you can use each day to become a better leader in 2025. Link is here. Cheers! Frederick

Frederick Colleagues, MVP: There’s a difference between something feeling important and being important. When I began teaching, email did not exist. And yet, I still managed to teach. And my principal still led the school. Today, it seems hard to imagine a school, or any other organization, without email. Yet, not that long ago, there was no email. Has the work changed that much?
