It was a simple event (i.e. Innovation Day), but pleasantly organized and managed in a professionally-elegant manner. 'Kudos' to the organizing committee; a true display of high commitment. Those rightly recognized for their contribution to the organization had received their 'tokens' of appreciation and recognition. The impact is significant. To the receivers, their hard work had not gone unnoticed. It provides continuous encouragement for future contribution. To the others, it serves as a challenge for they have yet to prove their 'real' worth to the organization.
Nonetheless, what caught my attention were the speeches. Delivered in a rather unassuming manner, devoid of any 'air of arrogance', they were straight-forward 'pleas', 'hopes' and 'urges' from the 'top' people. Very sincere indeed. The question, "What did we produce....?", rhetoric though it may seem, conveys messages of high density and urgency. As members of an educational organization, each and everyone of us, though positioned at different organizational levels, is an educational leader.
A crucial time to reflect, indeed; of our roles, functions and tasks, as and of educational leaders.
