We're loving how Richardson Independent School District is embracing the Safe, Respectful, and Responsible values as a part of their Code of Civility! 🌟 They are using these values beyond the classroom and applying them at sports events, club activities, board meetings, and more. Way to go #RISD! #CodeOfCivility #MTSSBehavior #BehaviorSupport #EducationFramework

😁 Brilliant Saira MacNicol - and to think most of the collection is currently in a bag 😥 I may clear my meeting table in my office and we could put them there! For all my connections in the projects and in particular built environment world, given how important we know this is to society, should we have ducks to celebrate individual achievement? What are your thoughts? Who would you want to be represented as a duck given we are delivering so many mega and now giga-projects? I did find one - a Brunel Duck but this is celebrating his achievement for the SS Great Britain.

This is more than a lesson in parenting. Apply this same concept to being a manager and watch your team flourish As managers we often get in the habit of being fixers instead of teachers and coaches. If you find yourself constantly running around playing an infinite game of whack-a-mole, take that as a sign that something is wrong. Most managers have teams that are understaffed and are constantly be asked to do more with less. Let this video be a lesson on how to achieve more with less. Create a safe space and clearly communicate it to your team. Then empower your people by letting them work through the difficult tasks, allow them fail, encourage them to keep trying, and above all else, never, ever, forget to celebrate their victories. One of your most important jobs as a manager is to empower and train your team to one day take your job. If you aren't doing this, you are not only doing a disservice to your team and the entire organization, but you're also placing additional burden and stress on yourself as a manager.
