Leadership
As we continue to evolve as leaders, I'm sharing a few quotes for you to consider. Reflect on your own leadership, where you are shining, and where you building the capacity of others.
- "The essence of great leadership is influence, not authority" ~ anon.
- “Leadership is not a position or a title, it is action and example.” ~ Donald McGannon
- "The best leaders have a high consideration factor. They really care about their people." ~Brian Tracy
- "A boss has the title, a leader has the people." ~ Simon Sinek
- "A leader is someone who demonstrates what's possible." ~ Mark Yarnell
- "Not all readers are leaders, but all leaders are readers." ~ Harry S. Truman
- "We cannot change what we are not aware of, and once we are aware, we cannot help but change." ~Sheryl Sandberg

Please join me in thanking the following people!
* Thank you Kristine! Every time we have a Board meeting, we are reminded, once again, of Kristine's amazing skills, organization talents, and general supportive nature! The Board meetings run so well because of all the behind-the-scenes work that Kristine does for each meeting. We love you Kristine!
* Thank you to all of your SWPP student leaders! Tuesday's Special Board meeting was so fun, as we heard amazing presentations from all schools. Thank you to BCK and your site leaders who support this great work!
