Teaching and Thriving in Difficult Times

In a time of escalating pressures and demands, many teachers are wondering, “How can I have a sense of control and even thriving—as a teacher and as a human being?” and “How can I reinforce the feeling of mission and excitement that made me want to be a teacher in the first place?” as well as “How can I stay successfully focused on what I need—as well as what my students need?”

An informal survey conducted by the Inquiry Institute revealed key attributes that teachers who considered themselves as “thriving” said were important or necessary:

• A sense of choice and control in their own lives
• Successful ways to get their “batteries recharged” and a sense of well-being
• Personal tools and skills for keeping a positive perspective while managing the inevitable stresses and pressures of teaching and life
• Reliable personal and professional problem-solving strategies
• Collaborative, satisfying, and mutually empowering relationships with colleagues
• A sense of dignity, feeling valued, and proud to call themselves a teacher
• Belief they’re making a positive difference in their students’ lives; that what they do matters

In this workshop, you will gain affirmation along with skills and tools for:

• Engaging in mutually satisfying and collaborative conversations with colleagues
• Asking yourself and others questions leading to more positive moods and communications
• Building personal resilience as well as immunity to stress and negativity
• Creating a positive action plan for experiencing thriving, well-being, and personal control
