Seek change in the constant.
Wang Lie gives the impression that he is easy-going, good at listening and easy to approach. This closeness made him more popular in his work, made him trust and support each other with his teachers, and enabled him to successfully complete one of the most challenging tasks, and finally made it clear that he had reached another peak in his career.
We must start from scratch.
1996 transferred to Zhuoni Tibetan Middle School as the principal. Two or three years later, 53 of the 55 candidates in the national college entrance examination in Tibet were admitted to undergraduate colleges. This is unique in Tibetan history.
When Wang Lie and all the teachers and students were still immersed in joy, he received a transfer order to serve as the principal of Zhuoni No.1 Middle School.
This is a difficult choice, and it can even be said that it is a choice that needs to consider one's courage, courage and educational feelings.
If you don't understand the present situation of Jonny No.1 Middle School, perhaps no one can understand the difficulty of this choice.
From this passage from an old teacher who was familiar with the situation at that time, we can probably understand the dilemma at that time: "In those years, Zhuoni No.1 Middle School did not send a principal, one came and the other went. Even for a few years, the principal was the county magistrate in charge of education. In school, people are absent-minded, and teachers are absent-minded and careless. The number of students is decreasing year by year, and the quality of teaching is decreasing year by year. One weekend after school, teachers' hearts were a little cold when they saw more than 600 students standing around the national flag. "
In the face of such a grim situation, who can not hesitate and weigh? However, courage and courage made Wang Lie resolutely choose to take office.
"I know this is a very challenging thing. My idea is that if what I do is not challenging, there will be no better development. " Wang Lie said.
When everyone thought that Wang Lie's first thing after taking office would be to reorganize personnel vigorously, what he did was beyond everyone's expectation. He didn't make any adjustments to the school staff.
School staff are calmly observing Wang Lie's actions.
"In everyone's eyes, the first thing I did when I took office was personnel adjustment. I should do it, and the county leaders also talked to me, saying that if personnel transfer is needed, the county will fully support it." Mention the situation at that time, Wang Lie said:
January passed without any movement. In a blink of an eye, a semester passed without any movement, which made the whole school teachers even more puzzled by Wang Lie's thoughts.
"Why didn't I transfer any teachers, even though most people think they are not qualified teachers. My idea at that time was, first of all, to find out the reasons and the details. If we make big adjustments blindly, a more chaotic situation may occur. In that case, it will be even more difficult to clean up the stalls. "
At this time, past practical experience has played a role. At that time, Wang Lie was often seen working overtime in the office after work. No one knows what he was thinking and what he would do.
Usually, Wang Lie doesn't like to talk about management theory, but he knows the true meaning of management: fairness and justice, giving full play to everyone's advantages.
"I think fairness and justice are the core of management. If we can't do this, the faculty will complain and be dissatisfied. All systems will be difficult to implement and things will be difficult to do well. " Wang Lie said, "But the problem is that everyone knows the importance of fairness and justice, but it is easier said than done, and some small things are even more difficult to grasp."
In people's attention, a year has passed quickly, and everything in the school seems to have not changed, but it has changed a little. That is, the faculty and staff began to feel at ease and try their best to do their jobs.
A year, two years and a few years later, even the school teachers were surprised. The school has really changed, and it has changed a lot-this backward school, which was famous in the whole state at that time, has undergone unprecedented changes.
Treat people as tools, each with his own strengths.
Teachers are still former teachers and employees are still former employees, but the school is not what it was a few years ago. What prompted this change? What is the answer?
What is the secret? When talking about this issue, Wang Lie said with a smile: "Actually, there is no secret. I really don't know what to say. If I have to sum it up in one sentence, it is that a bowl of water is flat, talk less and do more, so that everyone can play their respective abilities. "
An excellent principal is not what he can do or how much he has done, but how to motivate teachers, which is the so-called "taking people as tools to learn from each other's strengths".
Around 2006, the face of Zhuoni No.1 Middle School changed the most. Modern teaching buildings have replaced brick houses, and everything is new. The campus is green, hard, beautiful and bright.
From the relief calligraphy and painting at the gate to the campus sculpture, from the decoration of the teaching building to the list of calligraphy and painting in the corridor, and even a embossed wall in front of the toilet ... Every corner of the campus is full of well-designed humanistic landscape and cultural atmosphere, which are all from the hands of school teachers.
This also shows that Wang Lie is good at exploring the advantages of teachers and the management of employing people.
He is a thoughtful person. Every time he visits and studies in a place, he will pay attention to other people's designs, pay attention to the construction of campus cultural environment, and doubt whether his school can design like this.
Every time he comes up with an idea, he discusses it with the art teacher to see if it is feasible. "Can you do that?" Many times, teachers agree with them with confidence.
When it comes to the unique design or layout of the campus, Wang Lie and several teachers who participated in the design and production can talk a lot about the situation at that time, and it is also filled with the joy of shepherds looking at fat cows and sheep in autumn. In this joy, it seems that you can see the inner feelings of knowing people and being appreciated.
In 2008, at the third "two basics" experience exchange meeting in southern Jiangxi, Zhao Majie, then director of the Education Bureau, spoke highly of the construction of campus culture in Zhuoni No.1 Middle School: it achieved "two breakthroughs" in the history of Quanzhou's education development, created "five best" in Quanzhou and achieved fourteen firsts in Quanzhou.
The power of innovation
In the past, at the regular school meeting, leaders often took turns to speak or exchange words without themes, which became a "chat" meeting, which was time-consuming and inefficient. Teachers also complain that they don't like such meetings.
This incident caused Wang Lie to think, but how to change it and from whom? He also knows that, like many schools, this situation is not formed in a day or two. As the saying goes, it is difficult to go back and change.
After careful consideration, Wang Lie decided to start with the school administrative meeting and turn it into a "classroom+auditorium" meeting, which changed the disadvantages of the previous arrangement of work and tasks by leading cadres and the leaders taking turns to speak, enriched the content, improved the efficiency and gave people a refreshing feeling.
It is such a small innovation and change that has brought unexpected results.
With the successful experience of changing the Executive Council, Wang Lie went on to change the school staff meeting. In the faculty meeting, in addition to reporting the weekly duty summary and work arrangement, two forums are also implanted-the teaching forum and the class teacher work forum, that is, a certain amount of time is reserved at each regular meeting, so that one or two teachers arranged in advance can speak and talk about teaching experience, teaching experience and methods, or talk about the work experience and experience of the class teacher.
Regular meetings have changed from stylization to communication and sharing.
"Because of the heavy workload of teachers, it is difficult to take time out to organize the teaching and research activities of the whole school." A teacher said, "this meeting mode has become a whole school teaching and research exchange meeting to some extent."
"In order to make a good speech at the meeting of hundreds of people, the teachers who speak often check the information in advance, prepare the content and do a lot of homework. In fact, this is also a teaching and research activity, which is beneficial to both ourselves and others to share their experiences. This is killing two birds with one stone. " Wang Lie said.
"The meeting that teachers have a headache will become a forum for teachers to benefit. "This is the wisdom of Wang Lie's management, because he doesn't like to talk about theory, but pays attention to practical results. Discover "new ideas" in some small things that others are used to, reflecting the connotation of innovation.
Details determine success or failure, and practice makes true knowledge. The meticulous management that school administrators often say is expressed by Wang Lie with such things, rather than written on paper and hung on his lips.
In just a few years, Zhuoni No.1 Middle School has risen from a famous backward school in the whole state to the largest school in the whole state, and the number of students has increased nearly six times compared with 200 1. In 2008, the school was awarded "Advanced School of Gannan Education System" by the State Party Committee and the State Government, and "Demonstration School of Gannan Campus Culture Construction" by the Education Bureau.
The changes in recent years just confirm the saying that a good principal is a good school.
However, Wang Lie said, "I serve teachers and students, so that teachers can grow and students can benefit. I would be happier if one more student from a family of farmers and herdsmen walked out of the mountains and changed their destiny with knowledge. "
