Une vision claire est gage de succès. S'y conformer est important pour ne pas dévier de l'inspiration première. Avoir cette vision sous un format écrit est important afin de pouvoir la conduire jusqu'à sa réalisation complète.

In education, a clear vision of what you offer needs to be consciously linked to why it is important and best practice for each developmental stage of the child. Even with outside influences, the educational vision needs to be adhered to as this is one main reason for a family bringing their child to your school. Parent and staff support is essential, however; as a leader in education, if you have children of your own, they reflect the vision that you can ultimately achieve for a community.

To my mind, exemplifying effective leadership in educational settings involves demonstrating a clear vision and setting high expectations for yourself and your team. Foster a supportive and collaborative environment by actively listening to and addressing the needs of students and staff. Lead by example with integrity, consistency, and a commitment to continuous improvement, and empower others by encouraging professional development and recognizing their contributions.

' Be Honest ' - Consistent and straightforward interaction among stakeholders constitutes one of the most effective methods for establishing trust. This entails the transparent and respectful dissemination of your vision, values, expectations, and feedback. Additionally, it necessitates actively and compassionately listening to their requirements, concerns, and suggestions, and responding in a manner that is appropriate. One can prevent miscommunication, disputes, and uncertainty by fostering a culture of accountability, teamwork, and transparency through the use of explicit and consistent communication.

Le leader est celui qui écoute ses semblables et instaurer ainsi un climat de confiance, pour le bien de toute la communauté.

Trust is essential for educational leadership. With conflict between leadership and staff, communication needs to be a direct and respectful, but honest dialogue where the best interest of the child(ren) is being discussed.

La délégation des tâches ou pouvoirs permet au leader de se libérer et avoir une hauteur dans les prises de décisions. Elle permet également aux autres de se sentir plus responsables.

Para qualificar os professores, adote metodologias ágeis como Scrum ou Kanban para gerenciar suas tarefas e responsabilidades. Essas técnicas promovem organização, colaboração e transparência, permitindo que os educadores planejem e priorizem com eficácia. Utilizando tecnologias e IA, eles otimizarão sua produtividade e estarão melhor preparados para transferir essas habilidades para seus alunos. Aplicar essas metodologias em sala de aula não apenas amplia as capacidades dos alunos, mas também os prepara para um mercado que valoriza a gestão ágil, oferecendo-lhes uma vantagem competitiva.

I have recently worked at a school where there are multiple leaders, each with their roles and responsibilities for the workings of the school. Each one of these leaders could step into the principal position and be followed and supported. This maturity of holding the school as a whole above the ambitions or egos of the individuals is a healthy way to empower other staff.

To nurture a positive and inclusive culture, consider having a yearly theme that is broken down into monthly sub-themes, each focusing on a specific value or aspect of community building. For example, start the year with "Respect," followed by "Kindness," "Diversity," "Gratitude," "Collaboration," "Innovation," "Empathy," "Responsibility," "Perseverance," "Inclusivity," "Environmental Awareness," and "Celebration of Achievements." Incorporate activities, projects, and assemblies that align with each monthly theme, encouraging students and staff to actively engage with and embody these values. Highlight stories, achievements, and initiatives related to the theme in newsletters and on bulletin boards.

Ultimately the long-term families and staff of a school are the culture of that community. New leadership can come in, which sets a standard for what they will accept and what they can bring, but unless the community is honestly reflective and accountable, the culture does not change much at all.

Il faut permettre aux jeunes de développer leurs idées et les encourager à en produire davantage. Cela ne fera qu'augmenter la productivité et la créativité.

Educational leadership should ensure that the vision and best practices for children at each developmental stage are being followed until something better comes along. This means that educational leaders should be keeping up with new developments in science, psychology, child development, education, well-being, health, and more.
