Half-finished or half-baked? 002

Another installment of my ongoing

series of half-finished (and quite possibly half-baked) thoughts


that are

running through my head…

Meetings

  • Stand up and save time? I am guessing some (many?) school meetings would

benefit from this

no-chairs approach

.

  • This
  • picture is a great metaphor

    for how it should be.

  • I appreciate Scott
  • Berkun’s honesty

    regarding effective meeting management.

    The Adminwall

    I really like Jeff Utecht’s term, the “Adminwall.” This is

    exactly what

    I was talking about

    way back when (my first post ever!).

    School culture

    How fabulous would it be if schools’ organizational cultures were like

    this?

    culture map

    And where

    do YOUR administrators park?

    Imagination is dangerous

    For all those of us who think schools should foster imagination and

    creativity, The Onion gives

    us fair warning

    Did You Know?

    Karl

    Fisch

    and I keep getting e-mails about Did You

    Know?

    I actually met someone today who hasn’t seen

    it!

    LeaderTalk

    Last, but definitely not least, LeaderTalk is off to a great start. If you

    haven’t checked it out yet, it’s a hoppin’ place…

    Have a great weekend, everyone.
