How are you able to make significant changes to affect the way your team learns? @Queener1Be creative and innovative in everything you do. @Queener1The biggest complaint I hear is, “I just don’t have time.” @Queener1Look at what is happening in your life. Step back and ask yourself if there is anything you could do better – even by one degree. @KristenHartnageGather your team and find out what they believe in. Bring those beliefs to life. @Queener1Find out how you will treat and respect each other as a team and vice versa. This strengthens your team. @Queener1Once you clearly define your culture, you take one step closer to living it out every day. @Queener1
