026 - Share Your Authentic Self

Brandon Perry is entering his tenth year of education. He recently graduated with his Master in Education from Clemson University with a specialization in Instructional Coaching. Brandon’s main area of experience has been directed in the classroom where he has taught 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students in a variety of subjects. He’s  also been highly involved in making this impact through athletics. Specifically,  through boys’ lacrosse. Brandon has also coached tennis, soccer, and golf.

Key Takeaways:

Relationships are a two way street, but not the way you think. Building trust with parents is essential for success. Trust and relationships cannot be forced, but have to be built organically. Create support systems to help teachers no matter their years of service. It's important for leaders to connect and collaborate with teachers on a regular basis. Leaders must be consistently present in classrooms to make a difference. Leaders need to practice differentiated leadership to be successful. The difference between climate and culture in a building is relationships.
