Key Takeaways:

  • We need to recreate the structures to teach rather than just expecting it to happen.
  • Leaders are facing a blank slate as they work to stretch people past their comfort zone because people have been out of their comfort zone for the last two years.
  • Learning something on YouTube is going to teach you how to do it, but not understand how to apply it.
  • We need to find ways to create and support teacher agency.
  • It's essential to be aware of circumstances, surroundings, and how to apply the requisite skills to excel in a situation. 
  • Moving people from motivation to commitment is the only way to make progress forward. 
  • Education at any level has to go beyond a transactional experience by starting with what people are passionate about. 
  • You can't be a coach and equipment manager at the same time. 
  • You have to respect where people are to engage them in growth.
  • Leadership isn't about implementing an agenda, but instead finding what the goals of those you serve are and then helping them achieve them.
  • Stick to the A,B,Cs = Always Build Capacity
  • It's about process/project not product.
