Imagine looking at the members of your family, your team, your workplace, and feeling a sense of appreciation, recognizing them for their uniqueness. Imagine the sense of pride that comes from recognizing your own uniqueness, how you think, what makes you tick, what you have to offer others. Perspective is very powerful and personal bias comes in many forms. Significant experiences, for better or worse shape, our beliefs, our perspectives. But even something as simple as disposition, the way we are hardwired can lead to strong opinions which influence our judgment. There's a lot of talk about tolerance these days, with a focus on race, ethnicity, religion, and gender identification. But no matter how you slice it, we are all human. We are a bigger picture, a puzzle if you will, not a label. Today we hear from Trish Ruppel, a certified learning success coach who is currently working in the role of Student Support Manager. With a long history of homeschooling and personalized learning, as well as a background in special education and her training and learning styles, Trish offers her perspective of the importance of perspective.
