Prior to going out on my own as a talent management consultant and leadership trainer, I worked for one of Rochester's top companies in human resources. We always used the 20/20 scenario to reinforce the importance of being a great place to work and shop. What is the 20/20 scenario? Lead, work and serve (model behavior) so you are always ready for a 20/20 (news) investigation. If 20/20 was to investigate you, your business and your people, are you ok with what they will find. Better yet, do you think it will be a great opportunity for some positive PR? If yes, great.
As far as schools go, consider the following when evaluating what you are spending your time on and how you go about doing what you do:
1. What would your school's 20/20 headline be?
2. If 20/20 conducted interviews with your students, staff and parents what would they say?
3. As the cameras caught everything live, what would they be catching?
What is less important is your answers to these questions. What is most important is if your answers to these questions raise any concerns, you begin to take the actions needed to be a 20/20 Spotlight on Success vs. an investigation.
Don't forget to share your thoughts and have a great weekend!!!
