Interestingly enough I have been absent from the world of
blogging since this past June (2015) and so today I am writing to introduce my
#OneWord for 2016 which is CONNECT. Today I am re-connecting with the blogging
world. I have taken some time in focusing on other facets of my career and family.
So as 2016 begins I am once again establishing communication via my blog.
In lieu of establishing a New Year’s Resolution (or
resolutions) I am continuing with the practice of selecting One Word that will
define my focus for the year. Like I mentioned,
CONNECT is my word for 2016. As a school administrator it is so very important to
connect (personally and professionally) with my staff, students, parents, and greater
community.
In our fast paced society, we often fail to see the many
things that truly require our attention. At work we can get caught up on the “job”
and fail to see the many important things that are around us and need our
attention. By continuing my focus to CONNECT it is my desire to make sure I do
not lose that focus by staying CONNECTed with each stakeholder community.
So I challenge you to move away from the resolutions and select
that One Word that will define your focus, purpose, and destination for 2016.

I look forward to hearing about your One Word for 2016 and
how is shapes your work, life, and leisure time this year. Best wishes. Make it
the #BestYearEver !
Great word Ted - I'm going to support and encourage you to stay connected!
ReplyDeleteTed, you were one of my first true "connected educator friends". I've grown so much because of your generosity and from your positive example. Thanks for sharing who you are and helping me to define and shape my leadership practices.
