142: Praise Isn’t Just a Professional Thing

Acknowledging the talents and contributions of others shouldn’t be limited to something only done in our professional lives. We have to pour into each other in all aspects of our lives. Tune in to hear how I incorporate building relationships through empowering others in my everyday life and how you can do it too!

Quotables

  • What a waste for that thought to remain just a thought. It does nothing for my progress as a person to think nice things about other people and not tell them.
  • You never know when it’s your last day. So you might as well go make someone’s day while you can!
  • You don’t have to be someone’s mentor, evaluator or leader to give them feedback.
  • Giving freely of your thoughts is an act of kindness that could save lives

About the author, Gretchen

I am a teacher trainer and coach. Working elbow to elbow with teachers and teacher leaders to ensure instructional proficiency and student achievement soar lights me up. We have a real need in our nation for strong educators to remain in the field. My blog, book, podcast, courses and instructional materials are geared towards empowering teachers (and those that lead them) to receive the support needed to grow and thrive today, tomorrow and always.
