Two things

Colleagues,

Stay with me to the end of today’s message!
 
Today’s episode of The Assistant Principal Podcast (releasing at 3 pm) features an outstanding assistant principal from Greenville, South Carolina, Carrie Prochaska. The focus of the podcast is on coordinating testing. It isn’t a glamorous topic, but it is essential. So, if you are an AP or have anything to do with coordinating testing in schools, consider subscribing to the podcast.
 
At the end of every episode, I ask our guests to share the most important thing they want listeners to take away from the episode. Carrie shared two:
 

1. Communicate consistently, even if you don’t have all the answers.
2. Be positive about the task, whatever it is.

 
Here’s the lesson for all of us: Communicating well and remaining positive are two things that we should be doing no matter what the task is!
 
I am constantly reminded, that no matter how technical our current work may be, it is the same fundamental leadership practices that pave form the foundation for success over and over again.
 
Cheers!
 
Frederick
