What are you asking people to accept?

We're continuing our series on Bosses, Leaders, and Builders this week by looking at the difference between the way that Bosses and Leaders try to get others moving and Builders do. It all boils down to a simple difference -- Bosses and Leaders try to get others to comply or accept their requests even when their requests are not in the best interests of students and teachers. Builders, on the other hand, never ask others to accept or comply with something that isn't good. Instead, they sift everything through their vision, mission, and core values and only ask others to do that which is truly good for them and good for their students. If you find yourself trying to figure out how to get others to do something that you yourself don't even believe in, then you'll want to listen to this episode to discover how to rewrite untenable requests and get others on board #LikeABuilder.
