Mini Leadership Reflection

Rate yourself on a scale of 1–5
(1 = Rarely true, 5 = Consistently true)

1. Clarity

☐ I clearly communicate the why behind new initiatives.
☐ Staff understand how decisions connect to student data. 

2. Coaching & Growth

☐ Coaching is embedded as a normal, expected part of professional growth.
☐ Adults have structured opportunities to practice, reflect, and refine.

3. Time & Structures

☐ I protect time for collaboration and learning.
☐ Implementation expectations match the time and capacity available. 

4. Psychological Safety

☐ Staff can express concerns without fear of judgment.
☐ Mistakes are treated as data for improvement, not failure.

5. Feedback Loops

☐ I actively seek staff feedback before and during implementation.
☐ I adjust systems when feedback and data indicate a need.

Scoring Reflection

Strong foundation. Identify one category to deepen this month.

Below 25:
Pause. Reflect. Which structures are missing? Where can support replace expectation?
