Following the COMPASS is a vital foundation for the longevity of a school administrator's career. As I read the chapter, I found many of the items listed as qualities I possess and others I’ve yet to master.

After thoroughly reading the COMPASS Survival Guide, I came to the conclusion that support is an area I need improvement in. At times, I’m the type of Individual who tries to complete all tasks without the help of others. As a future leader, I must understand that this type of behavior can lead to burnout

    My Leadership Philosophy

    While current political and economic factors have placed emphasis on workforce development, I believe the purpose of education is as diverse as those who access the services of a comprehensive community college. I believe it is the responsibility of leaders to provide an educational environment where each person is understood for who they are and valued for what they bring to the educational experience. I believe that leadership is service to others. It requires listening, building relationships, integrity, ethical decision making, and community. Leadership also requires setting high expectations, sustained by accountability and conflict resolution.…

    Leadership Reflection And Analysis

I find that a great deal of the time I spend at home is spent working on schoolwork. This unbalance takes away from time that I should be spending with my husband and children and often leaves me feeling overwhelmed. Many people have the tendency to procrastinate on projects, and find them having to rush to do these tasks at the last minute. A big part of my problem is feeling that I need to complete assignments as soon as they are given.…
