You made a plan for the school year. You've been following it. But now the first round of data is coming in, and the numbers aren't looking good.
Do you stick with your plan? Make adjustments? Or throw the whole thing out and start over?
I've been facing that same question in my own business recently. After six weeks of implementing a carefully designed plan, our results were actually WORSE than before we started.
My first instinct was to pivot. But something I heard on a podcast made me realize that I needed to rethink my entire relationship with data.
In this episode of the 100 Percent Principal Podcast, I'm sharing why the way we've been trained to use data may be keeping us stuck, why disappointing results can send us chasing the wrong solutions, and how Builders approach data differently.
You'll discover why data meetings often leave teachers feeling defensive, the difference between reacting to numbers and understanding what's producing them, and the ONE question that can change how you approach your school's results.
Because when we use data to judge whether we're succeeding or failing, we end up trying to fix the numbers. But when we use data to understand what's getting in the way of our vision, we start fixing the conditions that produce those numbers.
In this episode:
Your 100% Move: Before you abandon your plan or introduce another strategy, look at your data and ask, "What's getting in the way of our reaching our vision?"
