1. Terms that are often overused and
misunderstoodo Community: a location or a connection
of social organizations. Leader must consider both, as they are interrelated.
Logistics, demographics, support systemsDirectly influence development of
children’s behavior and affects their learning as they observe and interpret the messages they receive.
![Page 21: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Vision is the ability to perceive something not actually visible. Vision involves keen foresight and powerful imagination.
Shared vision is a complex process in which a group of people united by a common goal work together to make the vision a reality. Administrator’s task is to lead the
group in the difficult journey that may be filled with pitfalls, disappointments, and setbacks.
![Page 22: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
2. Steps to building a shared vision and empowering the
community.1. Spend time to reflect why
you should undertake the difficult process.
2. Hire staff that want to be a part of a larger process, who understand the community, and who share your vision.
![Page 23: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
3. Share introductions Make sure office staff is friendly
and welcoming Introduce new staff to current
staff.– Welcome back parties, open
house, non-threatening atmosphere for parents to get acquainted with the staff and the school.
Establish procedures for welcoming new students and staff after school begins
![Page 24: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
4. Acquaint the staff with the community’s needs, assets, special characteristics, and key individuals.
Tour the community with staff every 2-3 years so teachers get an idea of where their students live and how they get to school.
Home visits?
![Page 25: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
5. Next, you must show that you are serious about building and sharing a vision with the community and its children.
Have conversations with small, representative community groups about the kind of school they want, and what the roles of the principal, teachers, students, parents, mentors, community members, office staff, custodians should be.
![Page 26: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
6. A representative group should review all the pieces and formalize a collective vision that incorporates as many different elements as possible.
![Page 27: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
6. Publicize the vision throughout the community.
Include it in all newsletters Present it to students and
discuss with them its implications and their roles in achieving it
Discuss it with parent groups, noting their roles. Identify ways the school can help them, and ways they can help the school and each other, in realizing the vision.
![Page 28: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
7. Keeping the vision alive.Revisit it every year.
–Are stakeholder groups on track?
–Are school decisions consistent?
–Is the community making the vision a reality.
Does the vision ever change?
![Page 29: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Joy in the JobJoy in the Job
More and more is being asked of today’s school administrators. School administration theory and responsibility have changed. What hasn’t changed is the “fun” part of the job.
What activities give administrators joy on the job? It’s group time!

ReflectionReflectionThe act of reflection provides an
opportunity for:– Amplifying the meaning of one’s
work through the insights of others– Applying meaning beyond the
situation in which it was learned– Making a commitment to
modifications plans, and experimentation
– Documenting learning and providing a rich base of shared knowledge

No one thinks we need higher academic standards more than me.At the same time I must say that the higher standards we
need most are not academic.The higher standards we need most are moral, and until we get that straight the
schools and the general culture are going nowhere but down."

•Working to implement the ideas of William Glasser, W. Edwards Deming and Steven Covey in schools
•Assisting schools in systemic assessment to guide systemic change

This graph, taken from The Education Commission of the States', Bridging the Gap, clearly shows the rising achievement levels of students in recent years. Education in the U.S. IS improving. The issue is that educational improvement is not keeping pace with public expectations. Many American schools are doing the best job of educating children in their history, but they’re not changing fast enough to keep up with the demands of the world’s economy and the expectations of the American public. This figure illustrates the central public policy challenge of education reform in the current political environment.

SCANS ReportSCANS Report In 1992, the U.S. Department of Labor issued a report
developed by the Secretary’s Commission on Achieving Necessary Skills (SCANS). Entitled "Learning a Living", the report identifies the skills and competencies necessary for the workplace and outlines how to incorporate them into American schools. In addition, the Commission issued several other reports addressing such issues as building community coalitions and giving anecdotes from schools currently using the SCANS ideas in their work.

Leadership Gap Every day we encounter situations, circumstances or seemingly impossible problems that could be ameliorated, if not solved by the exercise of leadership. At school or in our workplace situations arise that are allowed to develop or continue due to a lack of leadership. We do not act ourselves nor do we empower others to fill the void. Because of our belief in leadrship myths we are sometimes blind to our hidden potential for responding. We recognize that leaders could make a difference but don't act.1. Create a list of situations that seem to be an issue or at impasse and that might be resolved by the intervention of a leader. 2. What keeps you from taking the action you know is needed to solve the problem? What leadership myths get in your way? Do you have any support in demonstrating leadership in this situation? 3. What would you do to solve the problem? How would you demonstrate leadership ability? Thinking about leadership...How were you encouraged or discouraged to exercise your leadership skills?

Learning Community Thoughts
Ten years ago Peter Sense introduced the idea of the 'Learning Organisation', Now he Says... to change we need to stop thinking like mechanics and to start acting like gardeners... Companies are actually living organisms not machines' Fast Company
People come to relate to each other in predicable ways, which form a pattern that when defined the structure of relationships - norms, expectations, taken for granted habits of communicating. These patterns aren't fixed; they can change. Fast Company
' Communities of the mind are collections of individuals who are bonded together by natural will and to a set of shared ideals and ideals.' Thomas Sergiovanni
A learning organisation sees the environment. as messy, complex and volatile. It picks and chooses it's way attempting to use certain events as catalysts for action, turn constraints into opportunities, and blunt or minimise the impositions that do not make sense...because they know that that is the only way to survive and prosper in a complex environment. Michael Fullan
'Shared values are more important than paper and policies. We need, passion, people, and pride. Leadership not management.' Lester Levy 'Without question we have had a breakdown in the sense of community. The solution is to restore a sense of community...and doing within the school.' James Comer
'It's not the biggest, the brightest, or the best that will survive, but those who adapt the quickest'. Charles Darwin
'To raise new questions, new problems, to regard old problems from a new angle requires creative imagination and makes real advances' Albert Einstein
' Education for the future has left the harbor and is already on the open seas. Some educators are still clinging to the belief that the ship hasn't left and are invested in business as usual. Some educators are enjoying the freedom of the open seas .... excited about the foreign ports and places they will visit . Renata and Geoffrey Caine
'Changing public education is like punching a pillow or as someone once said like moving a cemetery; after you've done all the work you still have a cemetery.' Art Costa
‘Our challenge. How do we create organisational coherence...how do we create structures that move with change, that are flexible and adaptive...that enable rather than constrain? How do we resolve the need for personal freedom and autonomy with organisational needs for prediction and control‘ Margaret Wheatley

"THE FOUR AGREEMENTS IN THE WORKPLACE”
Everything we do is based on agreements we have made. In these agreements we tell ourselves who we are, what everyone else is, how to act, what is possible, and what is impossible. What we have agreed to believe creates what we experience. When these agreements come from fear, blocks and obstacles develop keeping us from realizing our greatest potential.
Based on ancient Toltec wisdom, the Four Agreements offer a powerful code of conduct that can rapidly transform our lives and our work into a new experience of effectiveness , balance and self supporting behavior.
Make your life easier, make the change consciously today to improve your life! http://www.itzarion.com/lifeagree.html

The Four Agreements Based on the wisdom of Don Miguel Ruiz
BE IMPECCABLE WITH YOUR
WORD
•Speak with integrity. •Say only what you mean. •Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. •Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.
![Page 75: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
DON’T TAKE ANYTHING PERSONALLY
•Nothing others do is because of you.•What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. •When you are immune to the opinions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.
![Page 76: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
DON’T MAKE ASSUMPTIONS
•Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. •Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid sadness, misunderstandings, and drama. •With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.
![Page 77: MCLA Leadership Academy 2002 Fundamentals of Educational Administration Dr. Sheila Tebbano.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4a5503460f94b3d73e/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
ALWAYS DO YOUR BEST
•Your best is going to change from moment to moment; •It will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. •Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.
