Regardless of which direction it’s headed, a ship encounters different weather patterns during its voyage: smooth sailing, the doldrums, and storms. Like a ship, life is unpredictable and ever-changing. The Captain needs to be prepared for every situation. As a leader, what strategies are you using to be successful in this unpredictable time in education?
