MONDAY MATTERS with Jen Schwanke and Will Parker – Cycles of Reflection


Listen Later

Hi, Principal Matters listeners! Thank you for tuning in for another episode of Monday Matters. This week, Jen Schanke and I are talking about chapter 10 from my book, Whose Permission Are You Waiting For? An Educator’s Guide to Doing What You Love. Before we jump into that discussion, Jen announces all of the places she will be at the ASCD/ITSE annual conference. Listen in to hear all of the details. If any listeners are planning to attend the ASCD/ITSE conference, Jen would love to connect with you!

Next, Jen and I discuss how summer is a great time for school leaders to take some time to reflect. We talk about scheduling reflection and engaging in both proactive reflection and reactive reflection. Additionally, we remind leaders of the benefit of reflecting with another person. Summer is often a good time for school leaders to do this as well, because there is more room on their schedules to connect with colleagues. At the end of the show, Jen and I share some reflection questions for listeners who may want to try reflecting, but are unsure where to start. The questions are:

  • What are some of the biggest milestones you experienced this past year?
  • What’s something you’re really happy to celebrate from this past year?
  • What were some of the most difficult challenges you faced?
  • What were the lessons you learned along the way?
  • Our challenge to listeners this week is to try to connect with a colleague and work through these questions together. If you would like to reflect with Jen or I, reach out to us via email at [email protected] or [email protected]. We would love to hear from you!
