Dream Themes: How Being Intentional With a Common Focus Can Lead to an Enhanced School Climate

Over the past 12+ years, principal Robert Hinchliffe has utilized a yearly theme to create a rallying point for his staff. As the co-author of Building Dynamic Teamwork in Schools and his own book titled It's All About Perspective, he shares past experiences with this model and describes the journey of growing this idea into a staple of each school year. The pages hold the key ideas and experiences behind each theme as the leader of a school, and readers will understand the why and the how behind each mantra that elevated the school culture and climate in his buildings. Follow along as you see the maturation of each focus, and read about ways to make your own "dream themes" a reality that help lead to teamwork and better outcomes within a school.
