Join in the #HISDAdminChat conversation each Sunday night at 6pm CST as we discuss the challenges we face and the successes we celebrate while learning and leading as an HISD Administrator.

One of my former students who works for the @Astros let me try on his Championship ring. I was try to pose all nonchalant. Classy move by Astros & owner Jim Crane #HISDAdminChat
A2) I like this question and the point it's making. It can be easy with "experience" to bring extra to a situation. Have to keep it simple. That's why I think young people see the world so much more clearly than us. Gives me hope. #OffSandboxNow#HISDAdminChat
A2: You can have so many thoughts running through your head, it’s hard to decide on a course of action. Then you start 2nd guessing yourself and nothing gets accomplished.
A2: 🤔 I can definitely start over thinking things and get myself "stuck" but there are also times when I'm stuck due to lack of info hence the necessity of PLN in both instances!

A2: When I learn of a new tool, I’m often to jump in and try it out. It doesn’t always work as I envision it will, and I maybe wish I hadn’t known about it! #HISDAdminChat
A2: the "curse of knowledge " is a real thing! But lack of info can make our decisions rushed or solutions superficial. Instead we need to look at root causes rather than quick fixes #JustSaying#HISDAdminChat

A3) Do you want me to coach or consult? I find this his helps focus both people. Think through vs give specific advice. Important to know what they're seeking. #HISDAdminChat

Adding onto this (mainly because I’ve been the recipient of these ?’s recently): “Do you want me to listen or offer advice?” Both have helped me get unstuck! #HISDAdminChat

During these hard budget times, sometimes ignorance is bliss so that I can finish the year and then worry about what I won't be able to afford #JustSaying#HISDAdminChat#SorryNOTsorry
A3: LISTEN, then ask what do they need to help them find the right solution for their class. What works for one doesn't always work for others. #HISDAdminChat
