I once secured an administrator job role in a big school, in Lagos, Nigeria. I’ll be honest, the school owner was very excited to have someone like me manage his school. Part of the job package was to give me a nice and free accomodation close to the school since I’ll be relocating there. Part of my proposition was to deploy the Popular 4-Legged School Growth Strategy and all the features of Thinkally.net School Management Software to grow the school rapidly and give it an edge over the keen competition in that vicinity.

But then, while preparing to resume, I discovered something rather strange. I got to know that the whole area where the school is located, had been disconnected from electricity for the past 2 years, and there was no redemption in view. For me, no matter what, I will not fly, or do well in an area where there’s no light.
I may struggle to deliver on my contract with the school, but personally, I will not grow. My package is not robust enough to accommodate 24hrs Generator fueling. And even if it does, I can’t cope with the cost or the noise. I will operate below optimum level. So I called the school owner who was always away from the school, engaged in another profession totally. I turned down the job. He was disappointed.
You see, after training over 10,000 teachers in 2 years, I’ve realized that smart teachers want to remain smart and will not allow your job reduce the opportunity for that. It’s the reason you say good teachers are scarce. Not every teacher is simply out to make ends meet. Some have great visions and will only stay where that vision can be nutured to reality. So ensure an environment that provokes creativity, train for continuous development, create challenging tasks, focus on easing their stress and stop compounding it without corresponding increase in compensation.
But there are actually 3 categories of teachers under this discus, Join me this Saturday as I teach you how to maximize their potentials for their good and for the school’s growth
