Biggest Takeaways You Don't Want to Miss:

• There is a real power dynamic that exists once you become an administrator. There’s not use hiding from it. But, if you understand it, you can find ways to keep it from ruining your relationships with your staff.
• When you are in a position of power, it’s important to be transparent about your decision making process. That way, everyone can at least understand your decisions even if they don’t agree with them.
• If you are not careful, you can abuse the power of your position without realizing it. Be careful about how you deal with those you serve so that the power dynamics don’t inadvertently destroy trust.
• The more you are aware of the power dynamics inherent in your position, the more you are able to successfully navigate them without unintentionally doing harm to those you serve.
