As a visionary leader I need to be able to tap into the trends and the future of education. I need to be able to see where we are headed and how to get there. I don't believe this happens while sitting in a personal bubble without constantly connecting yourself to the world of education, and the world in general.
In this society we also need to look toward our digital society and begin to imagine where our students are at....and where they need to be in order to be successful. Educationally this means we want our students to be such things as collaborative workers, problem solvers, critical thinkers, etc.
As a leader your craft of teaching must be finely honed, but the art of the administrator and peace negotiation must also be crafted. This is a journey that lasts a lifetime..... and I don't know that anyone on the journey actually ever arrives at the destination.
