Colleagues,
MVP: Teaching (coaching) others fosters independence. If you don’t have the remote, it’s pretty difficult to control what you watch. In leading organizations, there is no remote. At least not in the form we are used to. We are talking this week about supporting and growing people via coaching. Today’s guest on The Assistant Principal Podcast is Dr. Nick Davies, the 2024 Washington State Elementary AP of the Year. Nick and I talk a lot about prioritizing professional growth and development. One of the thing’s Nick said was that he tries not to worry about things he cannot control. This statement is especially applicable when it comes to growing others. There are things we control and things we don’t. As you move through your day, be intentional about looking for opportunities to hand others a remote control. How? Teach them something that will foster their independence. Today’s intention: Watch and reflect – be aware of how people could do better if only they had more knowledge and skills, and then think about what it would take to make that happen. Cheers! Frederick
