A Picture of Our Day

Dr. Marci Shepard Orting School District Teaching, Learning & Assessment 2010

Dr. Cooley

Dr. Cooley•How did the man come to the point where he answered the question “What do you do here?” with “We save lives”?•Why did Dr. Cooley frequently stop and talk to the man mopping the floor?•Who are the “we” in “We save lives”?•What is our “We save lives”?

Dr. Cooley

We need to “chart our course” so that we all know where we are, where we are going and how we will get there so we can work together to make it happen.

In ancient times, mariners set out for new worlds with the vaguest ideas about where they were heading. What happened? • They were unable to navigate the waters and they perished•It took a long time to find where they were going •When they arrived, they didn’t always know where they were

Charting Our Course

We must chart a strategic course that allows us to fulfill our mission and reach our chosen destination.

“My mission in life is to make people happy.”

-Walt Disney

“My mission is to collect all of the world’s information and make it accessible to everyone.”

-Eric SchmidtGoogle CEODr. Marci Shepard Orting School District Teaching, Learning & Assessment 2010

“My mission is to bring inspiration and innovation to every athlete in the world.”

Mission: Effective Districts

Great districts row as one. Like a crew team, they are only effective when they row in sync in the same direction.

Mission: Effective DistrictsAn effective district

is a tightly aligned community, marked by a palpable sense of common purpose and shared identity.

It is not a “you and me”, but a “WE.”

Mission: Effective Districts

By contrast, a weak district is fractured, with a group individuals each operating under their own agenda.

• Why do we exist?• What defines

our community?• What are we

seeking to accomplish for our students?

We want to hear from you.

Mission: Why do we exist?• At your table, take out

the paper with the Mission question on it.• Notice the table

numbers in the top right corner.• In your group, list

responses to the question on the paper.

Mission: Why do we exist?• Pass your paper to

the next table number in the top right corner.• As a group, read the

responses from the previous table.• Add your own

responses. Dr. Marci Shepard Orting School District Teaching, Learning & Assessment 2010

Mission Vision

Vision: What do we want to accomplish for students?

Vision: The actualization of our common mission.

“The vision is the best possible future that can be created by successfully accomplishing the mission in a way that is consistent with one’s values and beliefs.”

“There is no more powerful engine driving an organization toward excellence and long-range success than an attractive, worthwhile and achievable vision of the future, widely shared.”

-Burt Nanus

Simply by virtue of the energy it creates, shared vision becomes a resource or an asset that propels the organization toward a better future.

A vision is a compelling picture of a preferred future that motivates us to act.

What makes it compelling is it is something people can see or envision themselves doing.

Take an imaginary trip through time, ending up 3-5 years in the future. Turn on the evening news.

In your composition book:

• What are the stories you want them to be telling about Orting School District?

• What you will be proud to hear them saying about us?

• At your table, take out the paper with the Vision question on it.

• List responses from your group.

Breaking news!

We will be collecting these “Vision data” papers later.

When individuals visions come together into shared vision, there is a collective power unlike anything else a group or school could experience.

It is a key factor in creating both alignment and commitment to the journey of continuous improvement.
