Hello Colleagues and welcome to another 5 for Friday episode of The Assistant Principal Podcast!

Today’s shout out goes to… Mitchell Hall, Gifted and Talented Education Specialist, Garrett County Public Schools, Maryland who emailed me about the relationship matrix we featured on our August 30th daily email:

Hi Frederick,

I enjoy the relationship matrix!  As I looked over the different categories on it, I realized why my most effective leaders have taken an interest in my life outside of school.  I forwarded this email to three who have coached me, as opposed to simply advising or teaching me, and thanked them for making that investment.  

I just earned my administrator credential here in Maryland, and I really appreciate your podcast and online resources because they help me plan ahead for how I will lead when that opportunity arises.  Thanks for sharing your experiences and your expertise!  

Mitchell, thank you for your encouraging words and I’m happy to be supporting the important work you do.

Insert intro

Today’s episode of Five for Friday recaps the strategic leadership emails for the week of September 18-22, 2023. 

This week I’m sharing five strategies helping me be a better leader right now.

• Identify the next day’s priorities.
• Block off time in your calendar for important things and capture in your calendar what you do each day.
• Use a timer to create urgency and keep you laser focused.
• Morning routines are essential.
• Have strategies for ending your day.

That is this week’s Five for Friday rendition of The Assistant Principal Podcast. 

Thank you for including me on your leadership journey.
