Direct From Houston: Dell is Born
In 1999, Michael Dell was giving a lecture on the ABCs of entrepreneurship to a business class at his psuedo-alma mater, the University of Texas. When it came time for the question and answer period, one of the students eagerly stood up and asked Dell why, despite being worth over $17 billion, he continues going to work each day. “You’ve got so much money,” the student said. “Why don’t you just sell out, buy a boat, and sail off to the Caribbean?” Dell stared back at the student and replied, “Sailing’s boring. Do you have any idea how much fun it is to run a billion-dollar company?”

Shopping For Success: How Sinegal Took Costco to the Top
When Sinegal’s college presented him with its Most Distinguished Alumnus award, the Costco founder was almost left speechless. “I’ve never been told I’m a most distinguished anything,” was all he could say. With his poor grades and lack of focus in high school, it is doubtful that Sinegal’s teachers ever thought he would amount to much. But, today, with a billion dollar corporation under his belt, Sinegal remains not only one of the most accomplished, but also one of the most admired and liked CEOs in the industry. How did this once reckless young boy become the success he is today?
Promotional products a means to cultivate school spirit
The school mascot is an esteemed symbol for its students, teachers and the rest of the faculty through which they associate themselves to the institution and take pride in being a part of it. It is this symbol that the students grow up with and treasure as an everlasting memento which is etched in their minds for the years to come. Cheering for their sports team, wearing apparel items with the school mascot generates a school spirit in the students and encourages them to perform or achieve the best for their institution.
It’s Never Too Late!
In May of 1983, Helen Hill, age 95, received her high school diploma. She was absolutely ecstatic. When she finished high school 76 years earlier, she and her five classmates did not receive formal diplomas because the school was so much in debt they could not afford them.

Teacher Perspectives of Classroom Disruptions
High incidences of classroom disruptions, disrespect towards a teacher, and open defiance indicate that teachers and students have challenges with developing and maintaining positive classroom relationships which ultimately impact school discipline and student achievement.

Leadership Qualities that Promote Positive Racial Teacher-Student Relationships
Several years ago, as I sat in my office, I wondered if working as an educator was worth it. I was spending most of my time processing disciplinary infractions which did not allow time for instructional leadership. I knew that the time students spent in my office and in the in-school suspension program resulted in lost instructional time for teachers and students. This lost in instructional time has an impact on standardized test scores, school leadership, students, teachers, and the local community. When cultural conflicts between educators and students are non-existent, schools become the benefactor ...

Busting Teacher Unions for the Wrong Reasons

10 common behaviour management mistakes teachers make
Teaching is a complex social activity, and while teacher training prepares teachers well around content expertise and delivery, very little is done to skill teachers in behaviour management. Behaviour management, in what is already a high-stress profession, remains one of the most significant stressors for teachers, yet little has been done systematically to solve the problem. Much of the literature addresses teacher stress from a stress management perspective (treat the symptom). In this article, I plan to explore the 10 most significant mistakes teachers can make in managing student behaviour. Further, I also set out to show what a brain-based, coaching or best-pratice alternative might be to each of the ten mistakes.
