Motion+Leadership

The Book
 * we wanted some more newness, so some disappointment. We would like to see the video. A lot of it reinforced things we knew or thought we knew.
 * we liked it: less is more. Leadership is about the entire group and not just the leader and collaborating and using people around you and developing relationships.
 * Have the parallels between the book and the Region 4 culture.. for next steps
 * more opportunities to explore the technology with this book or the next book
 * aha related to judgmentalism
 * chapter 6: learning is the work. The learning happens between workshops - validates our work as coaches and how we learn.
 * We found many connections to working with our coaching partners. Even this process itself linked back because it gave us the nudge to prepare for today. The email telling us what we needed to do was a nudge. Thinking about the coaching partners we have - sometimes they need that nudge, too, even if it's not comfortable. We felt what they might feel.
 * We wanted more but through doing the activities, I realized that I thought about my coaching life, but I want to reread with the mindset of working at Region 4.

The Process
 * we liked the choice of items even though we were forced to look at some things
 * we liked downloading some files ahead of time to problem solve tech-y things or at least some of them
 * implemented choice and differentiation - we were able to choose but there was still a hint of being taken out of our comfort zone...For example, the poem
 * using the videos and the Fliq notes gave us time to explore. I may be motivated to do one of the other activities.
 * we liked the choice - comfort level, where to explore...working alone or with a partner or group. It was very informal. There was continuous learning going on.
 * I was prepared to talk about the chapters we put our sticky dots on, so forced/pushed out of our comfort zone
 * enjoyed the tic-tac-toe board. We came with different levels of readiness and frustration with technology but we came to rely on each other so that we could participate in the activity. We could still take notes even if our Fliq notes didn't work.
 * We really liked the choice piece. We're both reflective people and it allowed us to have that quiet reflection time to remember where we were when we initially read the book - along with the choice as well. There was a chapter that we weren't drawn to but we had to go back and reflect on it.
