<div dir="ltr">Tony, As I read your response, it made me think about how we use our time as administrators. Prior to reading your response, I would have quickly determined that an administrator who is strong on the managerial side uses their time more efficiently than someone who is strong on the leadership side, because someone who is a strong manager would move from task to task, completing each one until the goal is attained. So, what you wrote struck me, that someone who is strong on the leadership side will allow time to be used efficiently by the administrator. The more I've thought about it, this is definitely an area where leadership and management intersect. A good leader will learn its stakeholders strengths and weaknesses and personality, developing trust in order to delegate tasks when and to whom it is appropriate. This most certainly could alleviate some of their own work, freeing time to focus on other pertinent tasks. Additionally, a strong leader may rely upon his or her stakeholders to help develop vision, goals, and processes to attain goals. When an administrator's relationships are strong and extended deep within the open and human systems, it most certainly could allow for everyone to work together in a more positive way toward the end goal. Thank you for helping me see this in a new light.<br><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jun 6, 2018 at 11:38 PM, Anthony Gillman <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gl_agillman@seovec.org" target="_blank">gl_agillman@seovec.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><b style="font-weight:normal" id="m_5600852907699335858gmail-docs-internal-guid-1d5006f1-d84e-ee87-6c6a-f231d5d2722f"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:36pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Principals get rewarded for effectively utilizing both aspects.

Good leading brings others together as a focused team which will allow tasks to be managed by those who understand the overall goals and missions of the team.

Most stakeholders lack respect for a poor leader just because they are in a leader’s position (principal) and are not fulfilling that position. Divisivity with colleagues and community as well as a lack of or misunderstood purpose also are controlled by good leadership. Stakeholders hold the principal accountable if these things aren’t appropriately dealt with.</span></p></b><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br class="m_5600852907699335858gmail-Apple-interchange-newline"><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="m_5600852907699335858gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><em><font color="#3333ff" face="comic sans ms,sans-serif">Happiness is a proper balance of preparation and recreation.</font></em></div>
