1. LEADERSHIP is the capacity to

2. I have a vision for my students...

8. I constantly improve myself by
reading and studying books, articles,
blogs, and journals; by volunteering
for leadership positions at my school
and in my community; and by pursuing
higher education of my own.

10. I firmly believe in grit and in the growth mindset.
I teach these concepts to my students, and I lead by
example every single day in the classroom.

15. To encourage intellectual stimulation in the classroom, I use a mix of
10-minute lessons, discussion, and activity. I challenge the way my
students currently think about communication and presentation.
Together, we come up with newer, better, and more creative ways to
solve problems through written, verbal, and visual communication
using guidance from experts like Nancy Duarte and Garr Reynolds.

18. I give my students individualized consideration both in and out of
the classroom. During office hours, I meet one-on-one with students
to address their personal educational needs. I meet with students
after hours and on weekends to accommodate their busy lives. I
send reminder emails often including QuickTime video explanations
in order to best support my students’ individual learning styles.

21. I strive to inspire and motivate my students on our first day by
giving them a clear vision of the course and what I hope for them
after they complete the class. I communicate my 3 goals with them
and ask them to think of 3 goals of their own. I spend ample class
time asking them to reflect on how they plan to meet their 3 goals.

The fourth and final characteristic of transformational
leaders is idealized influence. Transformational
leaders serve as role models. Others trust and respect
them; emulate them; and internalize their perspectives.
Reference: Bass, Bernard M. (1985). Leadership and Performance. NY: Free Press
24. Without idealized influence, a teacher’s message will not resonate.
In my classroom, I respect my students and their opinions, and I
encourage them to be better not only at the subject we are learning
but also to be better people. To do this, I teach life lessons along
with communication skills, and I must embody those life lessons.
