Aim for Creativity, not Compliance

The more healthy relationships a child has, the more likely he will be to recover from trauma and thrive. Relationships are the agents of change and the most powerful therapy is human love.
Dr. Bruce Perry

Ann Pelo and Margie Carter, in their best-selling book, From Teaching to Thinking, which is the foundational text for the Reimagining Our Work (ROW) series, urge that the role of an early childhood administrator or leader is to “invite reflective, contextual thinking, and a willingness to linger in questions and not-knowing….Our aim is not compliance, but creativity, critical thinking, cultural connection, and co-constructed knowledge.”
