Collaboration
Collaborate with staff, identify strength of teachers that
may think differently, do things differently. Provide the school with a library
of open fluid information supported by staff that are passionate about making a
positive change and keeping up with change and technology
Transparency
As Don mention, be naked, not only with information but
processes, morals and ethics. Allow staff, students and community to see what
the school library is about, its goals, policies, methodologies to build trust.
This trust can also affect the following.
Sharing
With this built and proven trust teachers may be more
forthcoming with effective strategies, program and resources. Be more willing
to put themselves on the stage without fear of reticule but be open to
constructive criticism for the betterment of education, personal development
and student learning.
Empowerment
Empower staff and students with knowledge. Educate that
knowledge is power and distributed knowledge is empowering that can lead to
combined efforts with no single leader but many to work together to reach aims
and goals in education and life. Students can see that teachers are there to
help and staff can develop the mindset that not only are they helping students
reach education goals but they are assisting in developing a person ready to contribute
to their community through their newfound knowledge.
