Educators are good at time control. Educators are people who must learn to control and use their own time wisely. The classroom hours may seem structured, but all that they do in preparation, monitoring and creation of new approaches is performed in an unsupervised environment. This means that they have to set up the structure themselves and maintain the discipline required to keep at it. Educators are project managers.
Some educators become good project managers.
They are often assigned duties beyond the classroom, presiding over a broad range of faculty and student activities. It is up to them to provide the organizational structure, the goals, the milestones for progress, and the final authority on matters in dispute. At the same time, they have to understand group dynamics, and feedback, so that they get the most out of the enthusiasm that their students will bring to any activity. Educators are public relations people. Public relations and community affairs represent still another hat worn by educators.
