​From 10 to 50 – is it possible?

Colleagues,

MVP: How much time you invest in supporting and growing others matters.

What if I followed you around for a week, coding every 15 seconds of your day as being one of the following:

• Growing your people (their knowledge, skills, dispositions, and health)
• Supporting your people (aligning purpose, structures and resources to make it easier for people to do their jobs)
• Other

What would your time percentages look like?

I’m guessing:

• Grow = 5%
• Support = 5%
• Other = 90%

But what if you could invest more than 50% of your day growing and supporting your people? Imagine how much better your organization would be.

My guest on yesterday’s episode of The Assistant Principal Podcast is Mark Shellinger who developed the SAM process – a technique to fundamentally reshape how to lead a school. If you are a school leader and want to invest more time in your people, listen to this episode.

I’m happy to acknowledge Kaleidoscope Adventures as a sponsor of yesterday’s episode of The Assistant Principal Podcast! I appreciate their support and encourage you to connect with them if you are thinking about planning a school trip!

Cheers!

Frederick
