Win-Win

I have a meeting with a parent before school ws out that did not go well. I have a new meeting scheduled to try to work out the situdation. I am going to try to use my 7 Habits skills to steer this meeting in a better direction. Beginning with the end in mind I am going to seek first to understand and try to end with a win-win outcome. I let you know how it goes!

I am excited about attending the 7 Habits workshop and having the opportunity to visit with fellow Blount County Administrators. I have enjoyed the opportunity to examine all the different areas of my life and reflect on ways to improve and make each area more efficient and effective. For me, the difficuly part will be the follow-through, taking what I have learned and applying it in the weeks and months to come. Hopefully,this blogging activity will help to make me review, reflect, and realize the mission and roles that I have identified.A big thank you to Stoney for making this opportunity available and for the hours that he put in to get the PLU's approved.
