Hey Reader,

How has the week been treating you? Have you had time to reflect about the question earlier this week- Are you thriving, striving or surviving? The journey to leading a school that thrives one thing you as the leader need to focus on is consistency.

Too often, inconsistency at the top leads to confusion and frustration among staff, resulting in a lack of trust, moral, and positive impact on students.
​

As leaders, it's imperative that you not only set clear expectations but also ensure consistency in our actions and decisions. \

Reader, in order to thrive, consistency has to be non-negotiable.​
​

Here are three strategies to be more consistent:

1. Establish clear communication routines - this can be through meetings, emails, newsletters. Be clear on how you will communicate, what you will communicate, and when you will communicate.
2. Set clear goals - you can only be consistent if you know what you are working towards. Be consistent with reviewing goals and monitoring progress.
3. Implement Feedback Mechanisms - this goes hand in hand with communication. Regularly seek feedback to ensure your actions and decisions are in alignment with your goals. After you receive feedback, decide what actions you will (or will not) take and communicate that to your staff.

By modeling the behavior you wish to see in others, you foster a culture of trust and accountability where everyone feels valued and respected.

Model strong communication, goal setting, seeking and giving relevant feedback.

Let's commit to leading by example and prioritizing consistency in all aspects of our leadership, and create a school culture where everyone thrives.

Reader, here's to a future filled with consistency and positive impact.
