PointNorth recently attended the Coalition of Oregon School Administrators Summer Conference. In our session, "What Does Your Team Stand For?" we tackled how defining core values—not just slogans—can steer teams through challenges and enhance organizational success. This fun exercise led by Lisa, Jada, and Matthew Utterback used PointNorth’s Values Sorts to help leaders pinpoint and activate their core values. By fostering meaningful dialogue around values, teams gain a shared language for communication, problem-solving, and decision-making. So, what does your team stand for? If you need help defining that answer, check out our Values Sorts! 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gA9yuMGb 🔗 #COSA2024 #Leadership #ValuesSort #TrueNorth

COSA's Equity Summit is right around the corner. We look forward to another year of inspiring keynotes and deep connection and learning. See you there!
