What if observation wasn’t about compliance—but about cultivating greatness?
Too often, our systems push teachers into survival mode. But greatness can’t be forced—it grows in cultures rooted in trust.
That’s the heart of Trust-Based Observations.
Craig Randall retweeted
If Hattie’s highest effect size is collective teacher efficacy,
but our eval systems lower self-efficacy
How will we ever get there?
Observations must build trust—not anxiety.

“The job of a school leader isn’t to fix teachers. It’s to unleash them.”
Lead with trust. Build people up. Watch your whole school thrive.

Thanks! I left the SAM conference inspired and rejuvenated, especially with ideas from your keynote about trust-based observations!
Heard @allisonshapira impress the heck out of me with her keynote presentation at the SAM conference yesterday and digging into her book right now on my way home.

@WillowTop20 @TrustbasedCraig @allisonshapira Thank you all for your presentations at the SAMs Conference! I returned back to work today and shared a lot of ideas that I learned from all of you this past weekend. I don’t think I will view tornadoes, the tango the same way 😁

We have enough evidence now; time to schema shift. Use care and trust to support teachers and growth. It works. Stop rating pedagogy; it doesn’t work. trustbased.com

I read this today and immediately thought of you @TrustbasedCraig !!!
Over a decade of evaluation reform and no improvements to teaching and learning. Definition of insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. LET'S DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT: TRUST-BASED OBSERVATIONS. It changes results. trustbased.com

Trust has to be at the heart of teacher observations -- always, but especially now.
Thank you so much Jenn and @The_MainIdea!! I feel incredibly honored to have Trust-Based Observations featured in The Main Idea. My mission is to change the world of teacher observations; anybody wanting help or to know more can reach me via trustbased.com
