COLLEGIALITY

Why is it so important to develop a sense of common mission and values?

As Andy Hargreaves stated: “We must use collegiality not to level people down but to bring together their strength and creativity”.

This can be achieved by:

• Using language to clarify and specify goals
• Keeping open communication lines to defuse frustration
• Communicating casually and congenially
• Breaking down the barriers and unlocking potential
