MONDAY MATTERS with Jen Schwanke and Will Parker – Let’s Proflect Together

A few weeks ago, Jen Schwanke and I talked about the term “proflection”. Proflection is a term, coined by Jen, that combines reflection and proactivity. It means reflecting on past experiences in order to make changes to future practices. This week, Jen and I spend some time proflecting about work we have done recently. Jen shares some lessons that she presented at a conference in Louisiana, where she talked about the history of public education and the challenges that school leaders face in today’s educational landscape. I proflect on some lessons that I have been learning in my work in leadership and coaching sessions. A theme that emerged during our time spent proflecting is that a lot of US school leaders are dealing with the same issues, no matter where they live. The solution to their problems are going to be different depending on the person and the setting in which they serve, but it can be helpful for school leaders to remember that they are not the only person dealing with their problems. As we wrap up the episode, we challenge listeners to spend time proflecting on whatever challenges they are facing this school year. Don’t miss the opportunity to grow from whatever you are experiencing today! Listen to our full conversation for some more great takeaways! And, as always, thank you for doing what matters!
