Discipline 1: Focusing on the Wildly Important

Harnessing the potency of goal-setting is a crucial skill for educators. Discover the next step in refining your goals by emphasizing your Wildly Important Goal (W.I.G.). Your W.I.G. serves as a compass, enabling you to maintain focus amidst life's whirlwind and steer your team relentlessly toward what truly matters.

In today’s episode of Change Starts Here, host Dustin Odham shares the definition of a W.I.G. and the steps you can take to define your own W.I.G. Not only will you learn how to identify your W.I.G., but you will also be guided on how to keep this goal at the forefront of your operations by setting a clear goal and communicating with your team passionately and frequently.
