"This would be an excellent course for the head of school to take as a refresher course, or to use as a tool for self reflection and self evaluation, or to use as an action plan to establish better staff communication and relationships in centres where such a plan has not been implemented previously. It is also valuable for staff members to take in order to gain insight as to what tools are available to help improve communications and what can be done by the head of school to improve staff relations and get everyone working together in order to create a positive work environment." -Karen SteinmannJu
"The example conversations were very relatable, very thought provoking. I took many suggestions to heart and will implement into my new school year!" -Donna Luke
"Different generations brings different expectations of leadership so we must always do our best to stay current in order to be able to support, guide and mentor most appropriately. I feel that Jonathan has allowed me to refresh, reflect, and recalculate my leadership direction so that I can be the best leader that I can be for my organization." -Shelley Debaar
