People work for people, people stay for people and people love for people.
I once heard a saying that people don’t run into burning buildings out of fear, they do so out of love…
As we think of the characteristics that leaders posses, we must keep in mind the importance and impact of our people, and how we lead them. With teacher retention being such a daunting task, it is imperative that leaders lead in such a way that those working with you have to think twice before they will leave you.
There is something magical that happens with purpose and passion collide.Teachers, we NEED you!
How you do one thing is how you do everything.
