Building a Great Alt Ed Program/School part 2 - Leadership

Building a Great Alt Ed Program/School - Part 2 - Leadership

Having the right leader is imperative to building and maintaining the optimal program(s).  This does not mean they are all cut from the same cloth - rather they know their weaknesses and strengths, and this self-awareness makes them genuine and ready for the good fight.  These are the ones who will champion the students, the teachers, and staff.  These are the ones who are open to critical feedback and know how to use it to further the goals of the school/program.  This does not mean they are all superbeings.  They are human.  They empathize not sympathize.  It’s all about the same shared goals and struggles.  

 

There are many facets to being a good leader, though, and this week Philip and I discuss through those  - from the Norwich University online - we try to assemble the traits that should be sought in order to help build your program/school.  

Philip also brings up Simon Sinek and his book, Leaders Eat Last.
