Key Takeaways:

Teachers will perform to the level that they believe they can perform at if supported. You have to become uncomfortable if you are going to continue to grow to your greatest potential. Professional development needs to be teacher centric, engaging, and relevant. Whole school improvement becomes second nature when teachers are being coached. Regular ceremonies to champion teachers and students is essential to building a successful culture. Don’t use existing policies as an excuse not to change. They were meant to be adjusted. Being visible all day every day is a key to leadership. Leadership isn’t about the leader, but instead those they lead. Practicing humility is essential.
