Presentation for Parkland School Division Staff as we started our 2013-14 school year. Staff Engagement is one of our School Division's priority areas.
Surveys present clear and mounting evidence that staff engagement correlates closely with individual, collective, and corporate performance. It denotes the extent to which organizations gain commitment from personnel.
Coaching skills can help people maximize their strengths and increase responsibility, accountability, creativity and resourcefulness to overcome challenges and achieve results. The primary coaching skills presented in this interactive presentation will focus on the principles of a coaching conversation, listening, the art of asking curious questions, leading cultural change, and how to promote responsibility and accountability to support people to elicit their own solutions and strategies and take action to implement these solutions.

As an employee, do you expect your boss to engage you? As a boss or leader, is it only your responsibility to engage your employees? Timothy R. Clark in his book “The Employee Engagement Mindset” has this to say :
"More than anything else, employee engagement comes down to individual responsibility—something that is shockingly absent in the study and practice of employee engagement.
There’s no justification for an employee to wait expectantly for the organization to furnish engagement, as if it’s something somebody can give you. You, the individual employee, are ultimately and unalterably the architect of your own engagement. You own it and nobody owes it to you. Engagement is not an entitlement. Nor is it a right. It’s a privilege reserved for those who apply the six drivers. It’s a choice."
This is a summary of "Six Drivers of Highly Engaged Employees" by Timothy R. Clark. Read the book for further details.

Leader as a Coach: Impact on Employee’s Commitment- Lean & Six Sigma World Co...Jorge Covacs
by Jorge Covacs, Consultant (Brazil)
Research has found that the satisfaction of basic human needs in the workplace can increase the chance of success for the organization.
Engaged employees result in increased productivity, and this engagement depends on the existence of emotions such as joy, interest and care, good relationships among employees, and appreciation for their jobs. The presentation discusses what it takes to have a committed team with optimized performance: support of the manager, clarity on job tasks, diversity of tasks, and autonomy.
All of these elements depend largely on the manager, who should treat their staff fairly and with dignity. From the climate dimensions as developed by Kolb and the social motives, proposed by McClelland, key guidelines will be presented for managers in order to provide suitable support for team members.
Leadership is about Perception… Do you see things as they are? Or as you are? Develop Perception that ‘World is full of opportunities’ and ‘I am full of Potential’
Only your own perception and your own mindset limits you..

Designing a Creativity Friendly Learning EnvironmentEduSkills OECD
This presentation was given by Anne Fennell at the international conference “Fostering creativity in children and young people through education and culture” in Durham, United Kingdom on 4-5 September 2017.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

15. I’ve learned about collaboration, engagement,
critical thinking, inquiry and innovation. I’ve
been guided and encouraged by amazing
mentors; I’ve grown in terms of student
questioning and making learning authentic;
and most recently, sharing my professional
experiences and thoughts with others through
blogging and twitter. I’m excited to take what
I’ve learned, personally and professionally, and
share it with the world.

Editor's Notes
So....HOW do we get in Flow - bring passion, purpose to our work, contribute meaningfully to our teams and engage in mastering something we are interested in?
We do this by creating the same kind of learning culture for our adult learners as we do for our students. I came across this tweet that I wanted to share with you - I agree with it to the extent that there are certain conditions that our formal leaders can set up in our schools that allow for engaged learning to take place - like common planning time among colleagues; support for us to learn and opportunities for us to contribute to the decision making process; however, for the most part, I believe that creating conditions for engaged learning among teachers and all adults who work with and for our students is a shared responsibility. I believe there is a set of conditions that we all need to help create in our schools in order to be an engaged learning community...
First...condition...the foundation for everything else, is relationships. To become a true community of learners we need to trust each other - so we can have open, honest conversations with each other about doing what’s best for our kids. We need to create a safe place to take risks that are good for our kids and to try new ways of doing things. We need to surround ourselves with people who lift us up and support us when we need it - we need to be there to do the same for others. People need to feel a sense of belonging and a sense that their unique contributions matter - that the organization is stronger thanks to the different talents and gifts that each person brings.
