     Communication, vision, and really listening.These are the essentials in helping to implement effective, motivating changes in the workplace.

Sometimes it becomes necessary when trying to stay "true" to the vision, and yet meet job expectations, to be flexible and willing to try "Plan B." It is important that we all work together as a team, and yet not loose sight of our student's individual needs. Communication, keeping the vision alive and really listening can make a huge difference in attitudes and motivation!
