Stimulating Parent Feedback
August 9, 2011
Mindfully practicing authenticity during our most soul-searching struggles is how we invite grace, joy, and gratitude into our lives.

"What are some ways of stimulating parents to share their concerns? The most important way is having someone available to greet parents as they drop off and pick up their children. Directors who are free to chat with arriving parents will often find that conversations that begin with the typical "Hi! How are you?" lead to the more important issues on parents' minds if the director appears receptive and interested instead of being buried in bookkeeping or in the kitchen making morning snack. Of course, every director has a myriad of duties, but what is more important than maintaining positive, open communication with her customers? Careful use of time and delegation can free even the busiest director to attend this responsibility."

I love this because I strongly believe that though we may be in in leadership that piece of serving others should never be dimmed by our daily duties. For by practicing serving others we maintain a humble spirit of who we all really are and what we are all called to be: " Our brother's keeper."
