One leader holding the vision is like one trumpet blasting in a marching bandâloud, but not exactly music. Share it with the whole team, and suddenly youâve got a symphony in motion.
A vision is only effective if it is shared. So itâs not about the leader; itâs about the team. Itâs about the values that are held in common. Itâs about the relationships that are built. And itâs about the shared aspirations among everyone in the organization.

Absolutely. đŻ Strengths-first teaching changes everythingâwhen we model curiosity, listen deeply, and design tasks with choice + challenge, kids see what theyâre capable of. Letâs be the mirrors and the map. #AssetBased #StrengthsBased #edutwitter #MTSS #UDL

Powerful and true. A healthy culture is built when success is shared, collaboration is welcomed, and people genuinely look out for one another. Itâs less about competition and more about community. #Culturize
Three things you will see today in successful organizations with heatlhy cultures. 1. Everyone in the organization wants everyone else to experience success. 2. People give others permission to help them be successful. 3. People take care of each other with an âI got youâ

Well said. Leadership is not about position but about influenceâand we all have it. The real test is whether our influence builds others up or tears them down. Thank you for the reminder that growth in leadership is a continual journey, not a final destination.
When we think about leadership, most of us picture someone who inspires us to do better, to be betterâsomeone we want to follow. But the truth is⌠leadership goes both ways. Every one of us carries influence. Everyone lights up a room. The question is: Does it light up when
