Tough to Treasured
How to Forge Positive Relationships Throughout Your Programs
(and Your Life)
Claudia Mann
Building treasured relationships among all your school's stakeholders can be a hugely tall order.
It's not all dependent on "good" communication. In fact, many of the typical challenges can be remedied through a carefully prepared environment.
In this presentation, we will look at:
▪️developing mission and vision-driven policies and procedures
▪️how to clearly communicate what it takes for children and adults to be successful in your school
▪️strategies and fun alternatives to handbooks that engage parents in learning the policies and procedures
▪️how to handle those hard conversations that none of us look forward to having
This presentation was first published in the 2020 P2P Summit.
A certificate of completion for 80 minutes is provided. Learn more about certificates here.
This course gives you a look at all relationships, with children, co-workers, parents, etc. and be present in them and be aware of how you can work together in positive ways. This helps you be capable of discussions when problems arise. -Betty Hastings
As our small school moves to a shared/distributed leadership model, and I find that I am, after all, a school leader, I really appreciated the attention given to effectively communicating the school's systems, policies, and procedures. -Lisa Kirkwood
I loved Claudia's presentation and am sure that HOS's and other school leaders will find it a great help in creating an orderly and logical system of communicating the Mission and Values of their school. -Mary Colarullo

Claudia's break down of what our school's culture should involve was so helpful. I love her attention to creating systems that are personal and intentional. She has clearly practiced these systems and shares them with a kind passion that motivates one to think deeply about the systems and practices in their school's culture. -Emily Fitzpatrick
After listening to the lecture, it immediately happened that I had a conflict with my daughter and I used some of the strategies that were mentioned. Surprisingly, the conflict was resolved in a good way and faster than usual. Thank you. -Katarina Hrastnik
This webinar clearly outlined the nuts and bolts of how to prepare a school environment through clearly articulated and personally communicated mission and vision statements, policies and procedures. -Kim Conklin
As a school administrator, I found this workshop to be informative, providing specific tools I could immediately implement to improve positive relationships with parents, staff and students. -Carolyn Sheeran
I always need work with my confrontation skills. This was really informative in the ways I can go around that. I realized that I can be loud to get my point across. With the non violent method I can work on my confrontation skills to better them and help others understand better how I feel. -Anairamy Rodriguez
In addition to being a classroom teacher I am also the head of my department. Over the past few years I have occasionally found myself in conflict with the teachers in my department. Ms. Mann has given possible strategies to help get out of the 'drama triangle' and find foster a better working environment. -Jennifer Wagner
