Top 20 Teachers Create a Culture of Safety and Trust

Top 20 teachers create a culture that develops the potential of students and colleagues. This session presents four components of a Top 20 culture:

1. help others succeed
2. communicate ‘you matter’
3. honor the absent
4. see the problem, own the problem.

It also presents a tool for assessing the degree to which these components exist in a culture.
