LEADING FROM THE HEART
Subtitle Text Here

Our common belief in business is that the heart has no place in workplace
management. In fact, most of us were taught that the heart acts like Kryptonite in
leadership: it inherently undermines a manager's effectiveness - and lowers
productivity and profitability.”

But that is not how it works in the field of education, as teachers we are being looked
up to by the people in our community, colleagues, parents, and most of all our
students. To shape young minds, we must also possess a good heart that would fill the
void in our students, we all know that they do not only go to school just to be fed up
with information that they will soon forget, for learning to take place, we must also
keep in mind that we also need to nurture their hearts and individuality by being a
teacher that leads from the heart.

“Teaching that impacts is not mind to mind but heart to heart.”

-Howard G. Hendricks

As a teacher, I would say that having a heart in teaching is a Kryptonite but rather the
strength I hold to shape young minds to love learning. “I am a teacher at heart. My
goal is to inspire and energize audiences with ideas and possibilities that will challenge
them to expand their perceptions of teaching and learning and dare to consider our
professional future with optimism and excitement.” — David Warlick
