The first principle is the concept of following the words. As an example of how to behave as an administrator, I offer the example of morning duty. In our school, teachers are responsible for taking care of jobs during the morning rush of students. Some assignments range from simple ensuring students enter the building in appropriate uniforms to more complex functions such as directing traffic in coordination with others across three intersections. While I blame our school administration in some areas of management, one instance where they keep their words is during morning service. All administrators and support staff are actively involved in morning duties, from ensuring all classrooms are ready to receive students to directing traffic. Having staff observe them actually doing the task encourages a sense of teamwork in trying to achieve the same goal. However, the administration does not respect this principle in other areas, such as the application of uniform policies. They chastise teachers for failing to enforce uniform policies, while at the same time allowing students to enter the building wearing inappropriate uniforms. This lack of “doing what you say,” among other scenarios, discourages morale and makes teachers feel inferior
