Why everybody lives by selling something – part 2
For some time now I have been testing the concept of ‘everybody lives by selling something' with almost everyone I meet, including senior leadership teams (comprising of HR, Finance, IT, Operations, and Sales), primary school teachers and administration staff, senior banking risk professionals, and health professionals (including my podiatrist and GP). I am curious to see how people respond and how they see themselves in relation to the concept of ‘everybody lives by selling something'. Often when one mentions the words ‘selling' or ‘sales' you can see people visibly recoil in disgust, with many immediately saying something like "I don't sell" or "It's not my job".

Doing Poorly Until You Learn To Do Better
Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly. When I was a youngster I got into a number of fist fights on the school grounds. Now fighting was obviously frowned on by all teachers, but in those days kids settled differences between themselves and there was never any thought--regardless of the outcome of the tussle, which in most cases lasted just two or three blows--of getting a knife or a baseball bat, certainly not a gun, to get even with the victor. No, once the scuffle ended it was all over.

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.

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. At a high school consisting of 95% White Teachers and 99% of historically underserved students (HUS) interviewed teachers believed teacher student relationships, student attitudes, and student preparation caused classroom disruptions.

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 ...

Student Perspectives of Classroom Disruptions
In a school consisting of 99% White teachers and 98% historically underserved students, students reported that teacher behavior is the major cause for classroom disruptions.

Dumb Jocks Or Smart Athletes
Did you know that Elementary school teachers constantly force “active” children to sit still and they are quick to recommend these youngsters be placed on drugs to control their restlessness? The ADHD epidemic of diagnoses speaks to this point.

Busting Teacher Unions for the Wrong Reasons
As education stakeholders continue to sort through the reasons for failing school districts they have shifted the blame to teachers. Teachers are the cornerstone for any productive education but before we rid ourselves of unions we must consider other factors that contribute to failing schools such as dysfunctional organizational behavior.

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.
