- 11. Things to try… Online Find an online resource (article, blog post, website, etc.) that was shared with you recently and that you found interesting. Leave a constructive response and/or comment for the author describing a point that you liked or disliked, or with which you agreed or disagreed. Check back in a few days to see if the author responded to your comment. @ReshanRichards @SJValentinewww.BlendingLeadership.com
- 17. Things to try… Blended At your next meeting or any other event where you and others will be listening to or engaging in discussions for more than 30 minutes in the same room, invite two other colleagues who are present to take group notes together in a shared Google document. After the meeting has concluded, within 1 week, go back and organize the collective notes using headers, topics and sub-topics, consistent style formatting, and coherent sentence or note structure. Share this curated document (in comments only mode) with all other attendees of the meeting or event, including the speaker, inviting them to leave comments either in response to, or in order to improve, the shared notes. @ReshanRichards @SJValentinewww.BlendingLeadership.com

- 20. Things to try… Offline Next week, as you walk around your institution, attend various meetings, visit classrooms, and participate in other school routines, jot down on a piece of paper 2 to 5 challenges or inefficiencies that you observe others experiencing or that you experience with others. For each one, talk to a person whom you believe is directly affected and learn more about his/her perspective. Don’t try to solve the problem right away, and don’t even offer to, or promise to offer to, solve the problem. Instead, block off one hour in your calendar 3 weeks from now dedicated to investigating the problem(s) further. After your investigation, share the results with the person or people you originally approached. @ReshanRichards @SJValentinewww.BlendingLeadership.com
- 22. On a sheet of paper or digitally…. 3 challenges/frustrations/problems for each column
- 25. * Paul Graham Managers operate out of a “traditional appointment book*,” slicing the day into discrete, often small, chunks. Because of their status in organizations, they have the ability to pull others into their schedules. They have the ability to slice up the work of others. Makers prefer to work in very long blocks: “units of a half a day at least.*” In this time, they presumably puzzle through code (if they program) or syntax (if they write) or other problems presented by their materials and their goals if they are makers of a different sort.

- 32. Things to try… Offline For your next one-on-one meeting, arrange to have a walking meeting outside (assuming both participants are able to be mobile and the weather is cooperative). Before you head out, the other participant and you should jot down on a piece of paper all the things you mean to discuss. Plan to carry this paper with you. Set a destination that is about 10 minutes away and begin walking. If you have time once you reach the destination, stop there and find a place to sit or stand before heading back. What was different about this experience than a typical office meeting? Were you facing each other the whole time? Or walking side-by-side towards a similar destination? What were the limitations? @ReshanRichards @SJValentinewww.BlendingLeadership.com
- 34. Things to try… Blended Set up a Twitter account or use your existing one if you are comfortable with it. Find the next major event happening at your school where a large number of people will be attending in person, but just as many (or more) will not be there. It could be a school performance, a sporting event, or a guest speaker. Inform the organizer of the event and all of those performing that you intend to “live-tweet” the event, sharing commentary and possibly photos with the school community throughout. Inform your community 2-3 days in advance and then again on the day of the event. Attend the event (in person) and tweet your reactions and comments during. Take some photos if you are able to and share them as well. Monitor likes, retweets, and follows. A day or two after the event, follow up with those who engaged with the live-tweeting and ask them about their experiences. @ReshanRichards @SJValentinewww.BlendingLeadership.com
- 36. Things to try… Blended Set a recurring weekly 1-hour calendar event (daily if you can swing it) with a 15-minute alarm notification on your phone or calendar application. Make that time sacred (and “busy”, as it will appear in your calendar). If something must get scheduled during that time, make sure you move this appointment to another time that same week. The title of this appointment? “Go offline.” Use this scheduled time to walk around your institution, chat with people face-to-face, or just see what is happening. Don’t bring your phone or computer. Imagine this time was an important meeting with someone during which you would not let yourself be disturbed. Bring a pen and paper to jot down notes or things that pop into your mind. @ReshanRichards @SJValentinewww.BlendingLeadership.com
