I too believe that core value reminds you who you are and how you want to lead your.
Three of the listed core values that would be impossible for me to live without are:
Respect - this core for me is to listen to others regardless of age and try to understand what they are saying. It's being courteous. As an aspire directors, if we fail to respect those we are serving; we will face challenges in meeting goals and deadline. Moreover, the 100% cooperation that you'll need to execute a great program will be only a dream.
Creativity - that is to take simple things and make them beautiful. Being creative is a fear that many have but at times we have to see things from a different angle. Creativity is not just to make something beautiful but to create or recreate ideas that are functional. In the real world this always helps.
Conflict resolution today - for a fact not having this value, life for me will be constantly in 'distress'. As an individual, this is an excellent value. People who fail to resolve their conflict today many times live bitter lives. Being professional, make that you'll have to disagree to agree and forget about "petty" stuff that will not allow a company or a school to strive to its fullest.
At the end of the day; respect, creativity and conflict resolution today are core values that great leaders need to possess.

Hi Mark,
ReplyDeleteI see that we have two core values in common, respect and creativity. If we all respected one another what a great place this would be, "what a wonderful world", and how wonderful it is to be creative and help others bring out their creativity. When I work with children on their art projects I hear a lot of them say "what I made is ugly" I help them to see the beauty in their work and then to see them smile is a beautiful thing as well.
Your three core values show that you will have strong leadership in an early childhood program.
ReplyDeleteRespect - for yourself and others
Creative you'll be able to help bring out the best in your staff.
Conflict resolution today - the strength to be able to resolve a situation professionally.
