Have a Good Life

This is my second interview with Will Parker. Will wrote a book called Principal Matters: the motivation, courage, action, and teamwork needed for school leadership, and so we talk about his wisdom that is contained therein. Go ahead and buy it.

I interviewed Will in Episode 24 of Transformative Principal.

• A little discussion about technology.
• Some information on his book.
• How to make decisions.
• Write things down when they are still fresh so you know how to do it next time.
• Write processes down now so that you have them next time.
• Make a list and prioritize.
• How to delegate effectively.
• Importance of taking time off to recharge.
• The power of good mentors.
• Writing a letter of resignation.
• How to live without putting out fires all the time!
• Give instruction on the front end to make expectations more effective.
• Great teachers teach with both sides of their brains at once.
• More about KRAs (which we spoke about in Episode 24).
