TRIPLE III TIME – RESPECT: Common Sense Professionalism
Providing the best instruction to my American Government & Politics classes has become a little more challenging this semester. With the upcoming election now just a week away…the questions and discussion about each candidate at every level of government…has become more direct and intense for all the right reasons.
As you can guess we talk about:
- Political party differences
- Personal positions on issues
- Priorities for our country/state
- Information shared by candidates and their methods of communication…
and yes multiple points-of-view are openly expressed. Regardless of their beliefs and attitudes…the single, most, important position I require each student to understand, accept and utilize is:
RESPECT: Common Sense Professionalism
Why is this the most critical lesson to be learned??
Well I let them know that in politics…or on the job…or on personal life issues, the individual that follows a RESPECT: Common Sense Professionalism code of conduct… will most often be the more successful person. And regardless of your role as a leader, co-worker, colleague, friend, neighbor, student, teacher, political candidate and/or life partner; if you appropriately show a professional level of common sense respect to everyone you interact with…the right kind of respect will be returned.
The best part of this week’s TRIPLE III TIME message: RESPECT: Common Sense Professionalism is that YOU own its potential. YOU control YOUR potential to offer the best form of professional respect. So use that control/potential wisely everyday…EVERYDAY! The positive, progressive, professional returns will be unlimited.
