Themed:  We are FCS Educators, What’s Your Superpower?

Dr. Cynthia held a workshop called Unleash Your Superpower: Your Key to Unlocking Your Next Journey

As school is about start for the new school year. I want to share some takeaways from this conference workshop. It is so rewarding to walk with Educators through their personal and professional journey.

Workshop Takeaways:
1 - Setting goals that reflect not only your professional aspiration but also interjects your personal goals
2 - Building relationships with partner educators, staff and support staff
3 - Knowing and building your ecosystem/network
4 - Sharing and articulating your superpower with your co-workers with confidence and boldness…what could happen?
