Relationships Are the Work: Sustaining Civil Engagement in Schools
Description
The Ultimate Guide to Bridge-Building: Why Relationships are the Work! We wrap up our impactful week with Shannon Watson, Founder and Executive Director of Majority in the Middle (majoritymiddle.org). In this final segment, Shannon shares her deep experience leading successful bipartisan efforts, emphasizing why kindness and finding common ground are non-negotiable for navigating division in school leadership. Discover practical, low-effort tactics busy administrators can incorporate daily—like informal hallway check-ins—to make civil engagement a long-term priority, not just a crisis response. Learn why staying in relationship, practicing patience, and consistently modeling respectful behavior is the most powerful way to positively influence your school community.
