KnowledgeBases > Effective Interaction in the Workplace

Like any other change initiative, school improvement involves working with others to accomplish the anticipated results. As noted by Renee Mickler of Mickler & Associates, "ineffective interaction in the workplace is the single greatest contributor to low productivity, failed projects, abandoned goals, demoralized staff, and more. Yet it is sometimes paid the least of attention."

For school administrators, effective interaction with teachers, parents, students, and community leaders is essential to achieve academic improvement. In the following article and support tools, Renee Mickler of Mickler & Associates offers a perspective on effective interactions in the workplace that organizational leaders may find helpful.
