First, inaction highlights the concept of running a school.
The headmaster is the manager of the school and the leader of learning and teaching. The height of his thought, the breadth of his vision and the depth of his practice are related to the rise and fall of a school. Only when the concept of running a school is clearly in place can we grasp what to do and what not to do. The concept of running a school should have a clear orientation and a broad sense of identity, which can play a positive guiding role in the school's education and teaching activities.
I have always adhered to the management style of "If criticism is not free, praise is meaningless". I am diligent in learning to find gaps, brave in practice and implementation, good at reflecting on progress, good at communication and promoting harmony, strict with myself, willing to serve and strive for breakthroughs. The school team adheres to the motto of "diligence, pragmatism, preciseness and perseverance" and adheres to "people-oriented, harmonious development; Facing the whole people, paying attention to individuality, locking in the goal of "building Fujian's basic education brand and creating a national model high school", and constantly highlighting the school-running characteristics of "all-round development and being good at humanities".
Our school-running philosophy includes two levels. First, it is emphasized that the original intention of education is to tap human potential and realize human development, and it is emphasized to follow the law of human development, grasp the law of education, and achieve a harmonious relationship between teachers and students and schools to achieve common development. This is a long-term process, and it is an upgrading process of individual and group behavior from spontaneity to consciousness and from blindness to rationality. Second, "facing the whole" is characterized by "teaching without distinction" and "paying attention to individuality" is characterized by "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude". The former is the basic point and the latter is the key point. Personality is the sum of psychological characteristics of a person's overall mental outlook with a certain tendency. Everyone has individuality, and individuality is the way of human existence. Pay attention to personality, make the best use of the situation, and the trend of personality should "do something" and let nature take its course.
Based on a high degree of recognition of the concept of running a school, our school takes discipline teaching and research team building and student interest group activities as the breakthrough point, strives to forge a caring, professional, cooperative and dedicated teacher team, strives to cultivate a group of students with potential, knowledge, innovation and expertise, and gradually forms a warm atmosphere in which teachers and students learn orderly, work colorful, live lively and have feelings and righteousness. In the interaction between teachers and students and teaching practice, the dominant football club, the flourishing Yun Fan Literature Society, track and field teams that have made great achievements, budding choirs, budding dance teams, and interest groups such as mathematics, science, culture, life and calligraphy that have been reported frequently have become a beautiful landscape in the scholarly campus. Among them, the principal should "do something" in the direction and "do something wrong" in the activities.
Second, doing nothing depends on knowing people and being good at their duties.
"The prime minister must start from the state and county, and the fierce will be sent to the pawn." The headmaster, who originates from the teacher, is the soul of the school. He not only shoulders the glorious mission of "the day will drop to a great position", but also appoints others to lead the way. There is an urgent need to prioritize, "do something" in matters that have a bearing on the overall situation and the long term, and "do something" in trivial and repetitive matters. Knowing people and being good at their duties, giving full play to their talents and governing by doing nothing. To be able to know people and be good at their duties, we must first be humble and respectful, secondly, we must know fairly well, thirdly, we must do what we can, and fourthly, we must choose people without doubt.
"Good choose and employ persons, for it. It refers to the indisputable virtue, the power of employing people, and the extreme match between heaven and ancient times. " Among them, "do your best" is humility to others, which is not only a gesture, but also reflects a person's inner morality and cultivation. People are emotional. It is better to put down your airs and join the team than to be aloof and indifferent. Principals should be open-minded, good-hearted, tolerant and generous to people and things, "do something" in knowing and seeking talents, and "do something" in using talents.
Knowing people and being good at their duties requires employing people's strengths. Liu Bang said, I am not as good as Sean, strategizing and winning thousands of miles; I am inferior to Xiao He in guarding the country, appeasing the people and supplying food. At the head of the army, the battle will be won, and the siege will be overcome. I am not as good as Han Xin. These three are heroes among them. I hired them, so I can win the world. Isaiah berlin, a British thinker, used hedgehogs and foxes to describe different types of intellectuals. The former means to have an idea so that everything can apply this idea. The latter means jumping from one idea to another. These two types of people can come in handy, because different positions need people with different personalities and specialties to play the corresponding roles. Nowadays, the proportion of female teachers is increasing. Female teachers are delicate and dense, and have great maternal power. Naturally, they can pat their heads and shoulders and inculcate students of the opposite sex without any obstacles, while male teachers can't act rashly. Therefore, female teachers often have the natural potential as class teachers, psychological counselors, community tutors or librarians in books, dormitories and laboratories.
The headmaster should not only have the spirit of seeking a swift horse, but also uphold the belief of "employing people without doubt, suspecting people without using them" and fully mobilize the enthusiasm and creativity of all faculty members. He shouldn't do everything carefully, set limits everywhere, interfere from time to time, and even pretend to know how to command blindly. It is necessary to establish a forward-looking management mechanism suitable for the school situation, and to build an organization that is coordinated and restricted between departments. For example, it is necessary to adhere to the compartmentalized mode that the school is in charge of leadership, the functional departments are coordinated, and the grade leader is responsible, and carry out all the work in an orderly, powerful and effective manner through authorization and decentralization.
Third, inaction is driven by culture.
New york Bell Laboratories has produced more than a dozen world inventions. When talking about the way to govern, Dr. Chen Yuyao always said to the banner of "governing by doing nothing": "The responsibility of a leader is to make sure that you are leading others, and others don't think you are interfering with him." This is an invisible control and a conscious recognition. When Kōnosuke Matsushita, the Japanese "God of Management", answered "What is your management secret", he emphasized that "I have no secret, and the only way for me to manage is to always follow the laws of nature". This concept is actually an interpretation of "governing by doing nothing, and the Tao is natural".
In the evening, Confucius and King Lu talked in the palace. When they heard the sound of a carriage speeding in the distance, they suddenly relaxed in front of the palace and resumed galloping after passing. Confucius said to King Lu: This must be the car of Chi! Asked the next day, it was true. King Lu was surprised and asked him why he heard voices distinguishing people. Confucius said: Only people who abide by the law like Guo will abide by the ban of not rushing in the middle of the night. He who doesn't cheat the darkroom is the real gentleman! This high degree of self-awareness is caused by personal cultivation and is also driven by culture.
In Lao Tzu's eyes, doing is relative to not doing it. A gentleman naturally does nothing, taking the world instead of doing it; If you insist, it is better to be modest; Governing by doing nothing, we must let nature take its course. In school management, the principal should carry out all the work in an orderly way, but all the teachers and students can "forget the people to govern, if the fish forget the water", relying on this cultural identity and drive.
French writer malraux asserted: "The development of 2 1 century is nothing more than the development of culture." Culture has become an important driving force for career development and social progress. Active, harmonious and continuous cultural construction will inject vitality into the school, and the management system will no longer be the bondage of teachers and students, but a behavioral consciousness and realm trend. The current competition for running a school is ostensibly a competition for achievements, scale, facilities and talents, but in the final analysis, it is a competition for culture! Cultural driving force belongs to the category of soft power, which seems illusory, but in fact it is omnipotent and has far-reaching influence. The construction of campus culture is an important embodiment of the school-running level, the embodiment of the school's personality charm and school-running characteristics, and the internal driving force for the school to cultivate a new generation.
Culture is the process of education, that is, the process of educating people with culture. School culture is like a river, and teachers and students behave like a river. The river channel regulates the river and makes the river run in the river channel, but the river will change the river channel, or scour and erode, or deposit, thus quietly changing the flow direction. This is a systematic project and a slow work, which can't be accomplished overnight. The key to the construction of campus culture is to create a harmonious atmosphere and work together; It lies in the improvement within one's power and persistent improvement. Schools should constantly build campus reading culture, improve teachers' humanistic quality, vigorously carry out various reading activities such as reading classics, understanding masters and exchanging ideas, and create a strong atmosphere of scholarly campus.
Cultural drive will eventually form the characteristics of running a school. In a sense, the characteristics of running a school with higher status and wider coverage are the public's impression, evaluation and cultural identity, which is an important hidden support for the school's "inaction".
"I am not afraid of clouds covering my eyes, but I am afraid of the highest realm." There are many things to do to promote schools and educate people. The headmaster should be kind to people and be good at doing things. Qi Xin should work together and be ready to go; It is a kind of mind, but also a kind of self-confidence, showing the magnanimity of "the speaker is innocent, the listener is careful", treating "heterogeneous thinking" with tolerance, "seeking common ground" in "reserving differences" and "seeking change" in "seeking common ground". Diversity is the secret of prosperity. The more a school develops, the more it needs diversified personality expression, the more it needs the ability to integrate various opinions to form a unified will, and the more it needs the thinking and practice of "doing nothing without doing anything". ◆ (Author: No.1 Middle School of Anxi County, Fujian Province)
