But, what makes a good leader and how can someone develop himself or herself into a good leader if they are not one to begin with? The answer is that there are many factors that contribute to good leadership. And, whether someone is naturally a good leader or not, anyone can become a good leader. Get To Talking One of those factors of good leadership is communication. Communication is one of the most key elements of leadership. Good communication skills need to be learned to effectively become a good leader or manager. When communication occurs, as a leader, you will be able to accurately convey your ideas and thoughts to those that work for you. In fact, simply being able to convey these things in the fi rst place, much less accurately, puts you in the right direction for leadership. If employees have no idea what is on your mind, your leadership is going to falter. Employees are not typically mind readers. If there is a problem a certain employee is experiencing, good communication can fi lter the problem out. You, as a leader, can dissect the problem and offer solutions in various ways. Ideas that are given to employees work both ways, as well. Employees can give helpful feedback and generate new ideas to you that help the company as well, when good communication is present. Get Something Moving Motivation is another variable that plays into good leadership. Employees tend to stagnate when motivation decreases and it will decrease, without proper motivation. Many leaders try to motivate the old-fashioned way through fear. (Do what I say or something bad will happen) This is not advisable, since it tends to only deliver short-term results and cause even less competent work in the long run, due to resentment resulting from the fear tactics. Instead, try adding challenges for employees. A fresh challenge always adds excitement and spawns creativity. Challenge your employees with tasks that may be slightly out of their range and let them at it! This increases motivation. If they run into a snag, guide them towards a solution but don t offer the actual solution outright. Coach them into discovering the solution themselves. Once they have, their self-esteem will rise, thereby raising their motivation level. Two Heads Are Better Than One Teamwork is always something to consider when striving to become a good leader. This means not only teaching your employees to work together but to become part of the team yourself. Use others potential. Many times, employees potential is wasted. A good leader recognizes that his or her employees are more than just employees, they are people too. These people have lives outside of work where they have to make decisions on a daily basis, from how to deal with house payments, to car bills, to raising children, to uncountable tasks in everyday lives. Yet, at work, their decision making skills are not trusted enough to choose what type of toner needs to be ordered for a set of printers. The point here is that employees need to be trusted to do more. A good leader doesn t manage every single detail. Use others potential to your benefi t. You will fi nd that you have become a better leader for it. Back to School As always, increasing your education and knowledge is defi nitely a good thing when trying to improve your leadership skills, but the school that really needs to be brought to attention here is the kind of school that you don t get a degree from. Take the time to learn as much about your position of being a leader as possible. Take advantage of leadership training material to help develop your professional skills. Do some reading at the nearest bookstore. Attend seminars, workshops, webinars and other professional development events. Watch online videos by top leadership experts on YouTube and other sites. Talk to other leaders and see how they do things; exchange ideas. The more you continually evaluate yourself and your practices and search for as much information on leadership as possible, the more you will be able to keep up with changing times and the better leader you will be for it.

What more can I do to help my child develop? Where can I fi nd parenting resources? What kind of parenting strategies can I use to help my child behave better? Every week, hundreds of parents and caregivers ask the compassionate call-takers at 211info Family these types of questions. Sometimes a parent or caregiver just needs a quick referral to resources. Other times they may need onthe-spot parenting advice. Either way, 211info Family can help for free. Whether they need to discuss child development, family stress, parent support groups or just basic resources, parents and caregivers can contact 211info Family, Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm by dialing 2-1-1, ext.5, or texting the word children to 898211 or emailing children@211info. org. 211info Family is open to those with children birth-to-8 years old. 211info Family is a special program of the statewide nonprofi t 211info (www.211info.org), which provides free guidance and information about thousands of health and social services, including food and utility assistance, housing and shelter resources, maternal and child health programs, and much more.

Michelle Lang and Diane Schultz QRIS Star Program Spotlight Thoughts on QRIS from Parkside Preschool Michelle Lang - Preschool Director Why participate in the QRIS? Is this going to be worth my time? We re already doing great, what more can we do? These are the kinds of questions that may go through your mind as you contemplate the job of applying to the QRIS! I can tell you that Yes! it is defi nitely worth your effort! We did it and we couldn t be happier with the result! Here s why: It helped us to identify areas that needed strengthening within our program. It caused us to use a sharper eye to look at the classrooms individually as opposed to declaring that the whole school is perfect in every area! (To quote Mary Poppins, we like to think we re practically perfect in every way but no program is perfect!) There are always places to improve. In the end, we want to do what we can to continually be improving and to be the best we can be for the children and families that we serve! Another wonderful result of the QRIS process was being able to recognize the areas where we are doing a great job and there were many! Additionally, the QRIS funds helped us purchase classroom materials to make those improvements (including the purchase of The Creative Curriculum for example) which further support our staff and program. The support of Lane Family Connections and Cheryle Myers, was immense and the resources from the QRIS web page continue to be useful on our neverending journey to being practically perfect in every way! **Parkside Preschool program has received a 4 star rating!
