Face To Face Reflection

This weekend's classes were full of information that is very important to us as we are entering into administrative positions.  On Friday night both sections, HR and leadership, provided very interesting information.  It was nice to have a chance to hear the HR perspective, get ideas on hiring, and to get overall general information.  It was also wonderful to get to ask questions of the speakers who were there.  As always, the speakers did a wonderful job providing insight into their worlds. 

The leadership segment was a wonderful experience.  The listening activity, although difficult at first, was very insightful.  It showed us how truly important it is for us really listen to others and get the whole story before jumping in.  It also liked the fact that it was an activity that could be used with students or adults and modified to meet your needs.  Another facet to the leadership activity that I thought was important was all of the facts they gave about the importance of activities in schools. I think that administrators are so busy worrying about the budget and what needs to be cut that sometimes they lose sight of what is important outside of the CST's.
