Principals and assistant principals often feel pulled in every direction—fixing problems for staff, students, and parents—which can leave them drained, overextended, and disconnected from their own needs. In this interactive session, leaders will explore how to identify patterns of serial fixing, shift from solving to supporting, and create space for their teams to take ownership. Participants will leave with practical strategies, mindset reframes, and micro-resets they can apply immediately to reduce overextension and recharge over winter break.
Learning Objectives:
• Identify personal leadership habits that contribute to overextension and chronic problem-solving.
• Practice strategies to shift from solving others’ problems to supporting their growth and autonomy.
• Apply quick, practical techniques to reset energy, manage emotional hangovers, and avoid taking ownership of what isn’t theirs.
