​From worst to best…

Colleagues,
 
MVP: Make decisions based on your best people, not the ones who struggle.
 
Todd Whitaker talked about this in yesterday’s episode of The Assistant Principal Podcast. We recorded the episode several weeks ago and I have been thinking about it ever since.
 
It sounds simple enough – when y9ou make decisions, have your best people in mind. Yet, it is a paradigm shift.
 
It moves me from asking “what’s the problem?” to “how can I help you?”
 
The first question is about the outcome I want, but the second is about the outcome you want.
 
There is lot more we could dig into, but let’s keep it simple for today 😉
 
Today’s intention: Think about your best performers. What is something you could do to make their jobs easier? What barriers could you remove? What resources could you share?
 
Cheers!

Frederick
