Those who are committed to the goals of an organization and who believe that the organization values them will give their all for its success. Teachers should be well paid, provided with suitable benefits, furnished with an adequate classroom environment and educational resources, and given public recognition for their contributions, on appropriate occasions. Other members of the staff should be treated well also. Unhappy people do not make desirable employees. No Christian organization can project a godly testimony to its constituency unless it has the right kind of people in its employ.
Good leaders recognize the importance of preparation.
This awareness is reflected in their personal preparation and in the preparation they seek in personnel employed to meet the needs of their school. Ideally, Christian school administrators should have undergraduate training in education and experience in the classroom in addition to graduate degrees in school administration. Classroom teachers should have bona fide college degrees, preferably in education. Those whose training took place in secular educational environments or who did not major in education need strong in-service programs in Christian philosophy and methods to insure they will be properly prepared for the Christian school classroom. Good leaders, like Moses, recognize they can accomplish more if they do not insist on doing everything themselves.
