Leader in Me Parent Resources
Supporting The Leader in Me Initiative
We are often asked how parents can support their school’s leadership initiative. Each time we are asked we give the same answer “Use the 7 Habits language at home.” As the school year unfolds, the children are learning the language and meaning of the 7 Habits. By hearing the same language at home and at school, you send the children a strong message of what you believe is important and that we are all on the same team—the team that wants to help succeed. When parents and schools support one another, the sky is the limit! Below is a summary of each of the habits:
Habit 1: Be Proactive (You’re in Charge)
Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind (Have a Plan)
Habit 3: Put First Things First (Work First, Then Play)
Habit 4: Think Win-Win (Everyone Can Win)
Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood ( Listen Before You Talk)
Habit 6: Synergize (Together Is Better)
Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw (Balance Feels Best)
Apoyando la Iniciativa Líder en mí
Se nos pregunta cómo los padres pueden apoyar la iniciativa de liderazgo de su escuela.
Cada vez que nos preguntan, respondemos de la misma manera: "Use el lenguaje de 7 hábitos en la casa."
En el desarrolla del año escolar, los niños aprenden el lenguaje y el significado de
Los 7 hábitos. Al escuchar el mismo idioma en casa y en la escuela, envía el
niños un mensaje fuerte de lo que ustedes creen que es importante y que todos estamos en
el mismo equipo, el equipo que quiere ayudar a tener éxito. Cuando padres y escuelas
se apoyan unos a los otros, el cielo es el límite!
A continuación se muestra un resumen de cada uno de los hábitos:
Hábito 1: Sea proactivo (usted está a cargo)
Hábito 2: Comience con el fin en mente (Tenga un plan)
Hábito 3: Poner primero lo primero (trabajar primero, luego jugar)
Hábito 4: Piensa ganar-ganar (todos pueden ganar)
Hábito 5: Busca primero entender, luego ser entendido (Escucha antes de hablar)
Hábito 6: Sinergizar (Juntos es mejor)
Hábito 7: Afilar la sierra (Balance se siente mejor)
