  • 06. Vision Casting & Decision Making: Build to Last Workshop, Day 1

    Listen to Session 1 of the Build to Last Workshop in today’s episode on The Schools of Excellence Podcast where Chanie walks you through vision casting and decision making as a school leader. 

    The truth is, there is an endless list of things you can buy for your school and do for your staff.

    But the reality is, every single director has limited time, money, resources and people. And if you're unsure about where your focus should be at any given time, you're likely just making decisions flying by the seat of your pants.

    • This is why you're overcommitted.
    • This is why your budget is hurting.
    • This is why your resources are tapped.
    • This is why your staff is stressed out.

    That is why today we're talking about the 3 pillars of a sustainable school:

    • Mindset, Time and Culture 
    • How to assess the strengths (and weaknesses) in the pillars of your school,
    • And why they have such an impact on not only your focus as a director, but the overall success of your school (and the legacy you will leave behind).

    If you want to create a sustainable school with systems that constantly move you and your staff forwards, this is exactly what I teach school leaders how to do inside of the Director’s Inner Circle and Owners HQ memberships.

  • 04: The Myth of The Open Door Policy

    The “open door policy” has trickled into our school culture, because we think that it makes our staff feel valued and appreciated, since they know they can come talk to us at any time, for anything. Today Chanie breaks down this myth of the open door policy, and shows you how the application of this myth is likely negatively impacting your school, and what you should be doing instead. Chanie is hosting a 5-day workshop called the Build to Last Workshop, to help you remove overwhelm and interruptions to build a calendar and life that serves your personal and professional leadership goals. Click here to register now! P.S. in this episode Chanie mentions the Schools of Excellence scripts and open door sign, download the scripts here, and the door sign here.

  • 03: The Gratitude Matrix: Achieve Higher Retention & Collaborative Culture for Your School

    After 30 days of implementing the Gratitude Matrix, our executive director Kristen went from 17 callouts in September to 4 callouts in August. What did she do? She implemented the Gratitude Matrix in her school, and saw an almost immediate shift because her staff felt valued and appreciated. This is why I am so excited to share the Gratitude Matrix with you; a very powerful, yet very simple system, that I teach to all of the owners and directors that I work with.
