When I started out as a supervisor in education I didn’t
know what I was doing. All I knew was I
love supporting teachers, LOVE working with children and wanted to support
families in a caring way.
I relied on my former manager’s connected relationship with
me as a model for connecting with my
teachers. My prayer was helping my teachers to remember that they are the
reason we are quality care and that
they are professionals with a job that impacts a child’s grow and family’s
experience for life.
I needed help with learning how to a supervisor and was very
grateful that a director took me under her wing. She spoke into my life and
wanted me to become clear in my role as a leader so that the body could follow
effectively. One of the greatest gifts
she shared with me was how to pull out others strengths and show them on paper
what their strengths look like in their classrooms. This gift make a room run smoothly because
everyone understand their purpose and
that their gift will enhance the room touching different areas in so many ways.
The person that is my advocate on my behalf wants to remain anonymous , I’m not surprise because
she takes no glory for herself….. WOW……. but she pours into
so many people! She is a “good gift “ sent to me by GOD, and I’m thankful.
You are lucky to have a director who invests in your development as a leader. My director and I have quite different leadership skills, but I depend on skills I have learned from other leaders in my life. Continue to our what you know into others, they are lucky to have you!
