035 - Personal Effective Communication

Hi! My name is Kerry Flood and I am a special education teacher in the math department at Whitman Hanson. I am also the assistant coach for the girls varsity soccer team and can't wait for our season opener! When I am not working, I thoroughly enjoy spending my free time with my one year old daughter who is my inspiration.

Key Takeaways:

• Take items that are large and intimidating and break them down into separate sections or tasks so people can realize it might not be as bad as originally peers
• Clear a transparent communication is most important
• Don't care about people just one time
• Is provide teachers time during the day to get commitments outside of school
• Clearly communicate opportunities to get involved through personal conversations
• Let newer teachers know that things are gonna be OK even though they're incredibly hard at that moment in time
• Leaders need to hear everybody before narrowing down the information to the best decision
