I'm taking a graduate course entitled, "Leading Continuous Digital Learning." In this class and the last two, we've explored the characteristics of leadership, management styles, how to overcome resistance, etc. It seems to me that there are as many opinions about leadership as there are leaders. I find that I am having trouble drawing any single conclusion from the myriad readings.
Leaders aren't necessarily fearless. They, however, hide their fear from their team.
Leaders ask for help.
Leaders will be bleeders.
Another teen in our community committed suicide this week after, they say, she was bullied. Parents are rushing to talk to their kids about homosexuality and acceptance in an attempt to avoid further tragedies.
I believe we are missing the mark here. School and church leaders are afraid to truly lead...they are afraid to appear politically incorrect. Recent events out of Penn State and Syracuse University suggest the same to me.
This child didn't know her worth as a child of God.
Help me Lord to be a better leader for my peers, my students, and my children.
