- 5:09four
- 5:09of
- 5:09us
- 5:09been.
- 5:10Have

- 5:22drift
- 5:22comes
- 5:23from
- 5:23the
- 5:23work
- 5:23of
- 5:23tactical
- 5:24leadership.
- 5:25So
- 5:26as
- 5:26that
- 5:27whole
- 5:27leadership
- 5:27framework
- 5:28was
- 5:28evolving,
- 5:29one
- 5:29of
- 5:29the
- 5:29ideas
- 5:30that
- 5:31comes
- 5:31up
- 5:31over
- 5:31and
- 5:32over
- 5:32and
- 5:32over
- 5:33again
- 5:33is
- 5:34this.
- 5:34And
- 5:34I
- 5:34think
- 5:34it's
- 5:35a
- 5:35beautiful
- 5:35word.
- 5:35Drift.
- 5:36Right?
- 5:36I
- 5:36think
- 5:37it's,
- 5:37you
- 5:37know,
- 5:38we
- 5:38use
- 5:38a
- 5:38maritime
- 5:39metaphor
- 5:41in
- 5:41the
- 5:41work
- 5:42of
- 5:42Students
- 5:42Matter
- 5:43and
- 5:43all
- 5:44of
- 5:44the
- 5:44work.
- 5:44But
- 5:45I
- 5:45think
- 5:46you
- 5:46picture
- 5:47first,
- 5:47you
- 5:47picture
- 5:48what
- 5:48happens
- 5:49when
- 5:49a
- 5:49ship
- 5:49drips.
- 5:50It's
- 5:51out
- 5:51in
- 5:51the
- 5:51middle
- 5:51of
- 5:52water,
- 5:52and
- 5:52it's
- 5:53just
- 5:53kind
- 5:53of.
- 5:55It's
- 5:55not
- 5:55heading
- 5:55toward
- 5:56anywhere.
- 5:56It's
- 5:56just
- 5:56kind
- 5:57of
- 5:57moving
- 5:57right
- 5:58wherever
- 5:58the
- 5:58wind
- 5:59takes
- 5:59it.
- 6:00So
- 6:00I
- 6:00think
- 6:00the
- 6:00image
- 6:01metaphorically
- 6:02is
- 6:02really
- 6:03powerful
- 6:03for
- 6:03what
- 6:03happens
- 6:04in
- 6:04schools
- 6:05every
- 6:06single
- 6:06day.
- 6:07But,
- 6:07hey,
- 6:07we
- 6:08had
- 6:08to
- 6:08land
- 6:08the
- 6:08plane
- 6:08on
- 6:08a
- 6:09definition.
- 6:10So
- 6:10here
- 6:10is
- 6:11the
- 6:11definition
- 6:12that
- 6:12we
- 6:12use
- 6:13in
- 6:13tactical
- 6:14leadership.
- 6:14And
- 6:15we've
- 6:15been
- 6:15talking
- 6:15about.
- 6:15I
- 6:16mean,
- 6:16all

- 6:17talking
- 6:17about
- 6:17this
- 6:17word
- 6:19throughout
- 6:19season
- 6:2012.
- 6:20But
- 6:20here,
- 6:21for
- 6:21the
- 6:21very
- 6:21first
- 6:22time
- 6:23in
- 6:23the
- 6:23wheelhouse
- 6:24is
- 6:24the.
- 6:24Is
- 6:25the
- 6:25actual
- 6:26definition
- 6:27from
- 6:27tactical
- 6:28leadership.
- 6:29Drift
- 6:30is
- 6:31the
- 6:31gradual,
- 6:32often
- 6:33unnoticed
- 6:34movement
- 6:35away
- 6:36from
- 6:36purpose,
- 6:37clarity,
- 6:38and
- 6:39intended
- 6:40impact
- 6:41while
- 6:43activity
- 6:44continues.
- 6:46Drift
- 6:46is
- 6:46when
- 6:47motion
- 6:47replaces
- 6:48meaning.
- 6:49It's
- 6:50not
- 6:50inactivity.
- 6:52It's
- 6:52misaligned
- 6:53activity
- 6:54that
- 6:54feels
- 6:55productive
- 6:56but
- 6:56is
- 6:57an
- 6:57advancing
- 6:57purpose.

- 7:02and
- 7:02that
- 7:03was

- 9:07is
- 9:08all
- 9:08about
- 9:09destination
- 9:09and

- 9:11of
- 9:11the
- 9:11other
- 9:12ways
- 9:13that
- 9:13come

- 9:18we
- 9:18say
- 9:18relationships
- 9:19are
- 9:19the
- 9:20most
- 9:20important.
- 9:21What
- 9:22teacher,
- 9:22what
- 9:23leader
- 9:23doesn't
- 9:24talk
- 9:24about

- 9:25power
- 9:26of
- 9:26relationships
- 9:27and
- 9:27how
- 9:27important
- 9:28they
- 9:28are

- 9:32much
- 9:33not
- 9:34on

- 9:35but
- 9:35on
- 9:35compliance.
- 9:38So
- 9:38is
- 9:38it
- 9:38preventable?
- 9:40Absolutely.
- 9:42It's
- 9:42predictable.
- 9:44Let's
- 9:44say
- 9:45that
- 9:45I
- 9:45think
- 9:46drift
- 9:46is
- 9:47inevitable.
- 9:48What
- 9:48we
- 9:49do
- 9:49when

- 9:50we're
- 9:50drifting
- 9:51is
- 9:51where
- 9:51it
- 9:52becomes
- 9:52predictable,
- 9:53right?
- 9:54Because
- 9:54pressure
- 9:55happens,
- 9:56life
- 9:56happens,
- 9:57urgency
- 9:57happens.
- 9:58There
- 9:58are
- 9:58so
- 9:58many
- 9:59ways
- 9:59that
- 9:59you
- 10:00can

- 10:06that
- 10:07in
- 10:07another
- 10:07episode.
- 10:08But
- 10:08it's
- 10:09about
- 10:09recognizing
- 10:10when
- 10:10drift
- 10:11is
- 10:11happening,
- 10:14right?
- 10:14So

- 10:25I
- 10:25mean,
- 10:25what
- 10:26leader
- 10:26isn't

- 10:32that
- 10:32you're
- 10:32moving
- 10:32away
- 10:33from
- 10:33purpose.
- 10:33And
- 10:33if
- 10:34you
- 10:34remember
- 10:34the
- 10:34definition
- 10:35that
- 10:35I
- 10:35read,
- 10:36drift
- 10:36doesn't
- 10:37say
- 10:38inactivity.
- 10:39Drift
- 10:40says
- 10:40you
- 10:40a
- 10:41busy,
- 10:41busy
- 10:41person,
- 10:42right?
- 10:43But
- 10:43all
- 10:43that
- 10:44busyness.
- 10:45And
- 10:45we've
- 10:45had
- 10:45an
- 10:45episode
- 10:46where
- 10:46we
- 10:46talked
- 10:46about
- 10:46busyness
- 10:48is
- 10:48moving
- 10:48us
- 10:49away,
- 10:49even
- 10:50gently,
- 10:50right?
- 10:51Even
- 10:51if
- 10:51we
- 10:51don't
- 10:51notice
- 10:52it,
- 10:52it's
- 10:52moving
- 10:52us
- 10:52away
- 10:53from
- 10:53purpose.
- 10:54So
- 10:54I
- 10:54think
- 10:54it's
- 10:56predictable
- 10:58and
- 10:58I
- 10:58think
- 10:59not
- 10:59100%
- 11:00preventable,
- 11:01because
- 11:01I
- 11:01think
- 11:01it
- 11:02happens.
- 11:02It's
- 11:02what
- 11:03we
- 11:03do
- 11:03with
- 11:03it.
- 11:03When
- 11:03we
- 11:03know
- 11:04that
- 11:04we're
- 11:05drifting,
- 11:05there
- 11:05it
- 11:06is.
- 11:07So
- 11:07you've
- 11:07really,
- 11:09in
- 11:09all
- 11:10of
- 11:10this
- 11:11that
- 11:11you're,
- 11:11you
- 11:12know,
- 11:12talking
- 11:12about
- 11:13and
- 11:14explaining,
- 11:17it
- 11:17seems
- 11:17to
- 11:17me
- 11:18like
- 11:18there's
- 11:19different
- 11:20pieces
- 11:20of
- 11:21that,
- 11:21there's
- 11:21different
- 11:22parts,
- 11:22almost
- 11:23like
- 11:23this
- 11:24puzzle
- 11:25of
- 11:25drift
- 11:26that.
- 11:26That
- 11:26can
- 11:27go
- 11:27together.
- 11:28So
- 11:29are
- 11:29there
- 11:29different
- 11:31types
- 11:32of
- 11:32drift?
- 11:33Are
- 11:33there
- 11:33different
- 11:34parts
- 11:34of
- 11:35that?
- 11:37We
- 11:38don't
- 11:38all
- 11:38drift
- 11:38in
- 11:38the
- 11:38same
- 11:39way,
- 11:39right?
- 11:39Every
- 11:39organization
- 11:40drifts
- 11:41differently.
- 11:42And
- 11:42so
- 11:43we've
- 11:43defined
- 11:44some
- 11:45of
- 11:45the
- 11:45big
- 11:45ways.
- 11:46I
- 11:47think
- 11:47there
- 11:47are
- 11:47five
- 11:47that
- 11:48we've
- 11:48defined
- 11:48that
- 11:48really
- 11:49define
- 11:51what
- 11:51does
- 11:51drift
- 11:51look
- 11:52like?
- 11:52In
- 11:52what
- 11:53ways
- 11:53can
- 11:53you
- 11:54drift?
- 11:54Because
- 11:54in
- 11:54order
- 11:54to
- 11:55prevent
- 11:55it,
- 11:56we
- 11:57gotta
- 11:57be
- 11:57able
- 11:57to
- 11:57identify
- 11:58it,
- 11:58right?
- 11:59So
- 11:59we've,
- 11:59again,
- 12:00there
- 12:00are
- 12:00five
- 12:00that
- 12:01we've
- 12:01identified.
- 12:01The
- 12:01first
- 12:02one
- 12:02is
- 12:02purpose,
- 12:03right?
- 12:03And
- 12:03that
- 12:04is
- 12:04when
- 12:04we
- 12:04lose
- 12:05sight
- 12:06of
- 12:06what
- 12:06matters,
- 12:07right?
- 12:07And
- 12:08often
- 12:08the
- 12:08signal
- 12:09is
- 12:10that
- 12:10we,
- 12:10you
- 12:10know,
- 12:10you
- 12:11hear
- 12:11people
- 12:11say
- 12:11is
- 12:11like,
- 12:12so
- 12:12why
- 12:12are
- 12:12we
- 12:12doing
- 12:12this?
- 12:14Right?
- 12:14Why
- 12:15are
- 12:15we
- 12:15doing
- 12:15why?
- 12:15Why
- 12:16is.
- 12:16Why
- 12:16is
- 12:16this
- 12:16initiative?
- 12:17Why
- 12:17are
- 12:18we
- 12:18doing
- 12:18this?
- 12:18Why
- 12:18are
- 12:18you
- 12:18asking
- 12:19me
- 12:19to
- 12:19do
- 12:19this?
- 12:20That's
- 12:20drift.
- 12:21That
- 12:21means
- 12:21that
- 12:21purpose
- 12:22isn't
- 12:23clear
- 12:23and
- 12:24we've
- 12:24lost
- 12:24sight
- 12:25of
- 12:25why
- 12:25we're
- 12:26doing
- 12:26what
- 12:26we're
- 12:26doing.
- 12:28There's
- 12:28also
- 12:28interpretation
- 12:29drift.
- 12:30When
- 12:30we
- 12:30look
- 12:31at
- 12:32the
- 12:32reality
- 12:32of
- 12:33a
- 12:33situation,
- 12:33whether
- 12:33that's
- 12:34data,
- 12:34whether
- 12:35that's
- 12:35an
- 12:35observation,
- 12:37and
- 12:37you've
- 12:38got
- 12:38different
- 12:38people
- 12:39telling
- 12:39different
- 12:39stories.
- 12:41So
- 12:42we
- 12:42look
- 12:43at
- 12:43the
- 12:43same
- 12:43data,
- 12:43look
- 12:44at
- 12:44the
- 12:44same
- 12:44information,
- 12:45but
- 12:45the
- 12:46story
- 12:46plays
- 12:46out
- 12:47differently
- 12:48depending
- 12:48on
- 12:48who
- 12:49you
- 12:49ask.
- 12:49That
- 12:50means
- 12:50we're
- 12:50interpreting
- 12:51it
- 12:52differently.

- 13:07of
- 13:08the
- 13:08things
- 13:08we
- 13:08kept

- 13:11and
- 13:11Alicia
- 13:11and
- 13:11I
- 13:11do
- 13:12the
- 13:12same
- 13:12thing.
- 13:12It's
- 13:12like,
- 13:12you
- 13:13gotta
- 13:13really
- 13:13get
- 13:13to
- 13:14root
- 13:14cause,
- 13:15because
- 13:16if
- 13:16you
- 13:16don't
- 13:16get
- 13:16to
- 13:16root
- 13:17cause,
- 13:17you're
- 13:17just
- 13:17gonna
- 13:17spin
- 13:18your
- 13:18wheels.
- 13:18You're
- 13:19just
- 13:19doing
- 13:19a
- 13:19lot
- 13:19of
- 13:19Things,
- 13:20but
- 13:20it
- 13:20won't
- 13:21necessarily
- 13:21solve
- 13:22your
- 13:22problem.
- 13:23Right.
- 13:23And,
- 13:24you
- 13:24know,
- 13:24we
- 13:24call
- 13:25that
- 13:25in
- 13:25tactical
- 13:26leadership,
- 13:27you
- 13:27know,
- 13:27action
- 13:28drift.
- 13:29Then
- 13:30there's
- 13:30the
- 13:30human
- 13:31drift.
- 13:32That's
- 13:32when
- 13:32we
- 13:33lose.
- 13:34We
- 13:34lose
- 13:34connection
- 13:35to
- 13:36people,
- 13:36their
- 13:37needs
- 13:37and
- 13:37their
- 13:37experiences.
- 13:38We
- 13:38often
- 13:39see
- 13:39people
- 13:40disengage
- 13:41with
- 13:42the
- 13:42work
- 13:42because
- 13:42they
- 13:43don't
- 13:43feel
- 13:43ownership
- 13:44in
- 13:45the
- 13:45work.
- 13:46Right.
- 13:46So
- 13:48they
- 13:48just
- 13:48kind
- 13:49of
- 13:49opt
- 13:49out
- 13:50of
- 13:50that.
- 13:51And
- 13:51then,
- 13:52you
- 13:52know,
- 13:52again,
- 13:53we're
- 13:53kind
- 13:53of
- 13:54drifting
- 13:54into
- 13:54this.
- 13:55See
- 13:55here,
- 13:56and
- 13:56the
- 13:56last
- 13:56one,
- 13:56which
- 13:57I
- 13:57think
- 13:57is
- 13:57probably
- 13:57the
- 13:58biggest,
- 13:59and
- 13:59I
- 13:59think
- 13:59it's
- 14:00the
- 14:00most
- 14:01destructive,
- 14:02and
- 14:03they're
- 14:03all
- 14:03horrible,
- 14:03and
- 14:04we
- 14:04want
- 14:04to
- 14:05fix
- 14:05all
- 14:05of
- 14:05them.
- 14:05But
- 14:06there's
- 14:06this
- 14:06coherence
- 14:07drift,
- 14:09because
- 14:09this
- 14:09one,
- 14:09I
- 14:09think
- 14:10we
- 14:10don't
- 14:10notice
- 14:11as
- 14:11often
- 14:11as
- 14:12the
- 14:12others
- 14:12when
- 14:13people
- 14:13disengage.
- 14:13We
- 14:14know
- 14:15when
- 14:15we
- 14:15aren't
- 14:16sure
- 14:16why
- 14:16we're
- 14:16doing
- 14:16something,
- 14:17someone's
- 14:17going
- 14:18to
- 14:18say,
- 14:18why
- 14:18are
- 14:18we
- 14:18doing
- 14:18that?
- 14:19Right.
- 14:19And
- 14:19we
- 14:19know.
- 14:20But
- 14:20this
- 14:21coherence
- 14:22drift
- 14:23is
- 14:23when
- 14:24we're
- 14:25doing
- 14:25a
- 14:25lot
- 14:25of
- 14:25stuff,
- 14:27we
- 14:27don't
- 14:28necessarily
- 14:29see
- 14:29how
- 14:29it
- 14:29connects
- 14:30or
- 14:30how
- 14:31it's
- 14:31moving.
- 14:31I'm
- 14:31working
- 14:32with
- 14:32the
- 14:32district
- 14:32now,
- 14:33and
- 14:33they're
- 14:33doing
- 14:34five
- 14:34really
- 14:34big
- 14:35things.
- 14:35I'm
- 14:35not
- 14:35even
- 14:36going
- 14:36to
- 14:36name
- 14:36them,
- 14:36but
- 14:37they're
- 14:37the
- 14:37big
- 14:37stuff
- 14:37that
- 14:38everybody
- 14:38does
- 14:39all
- 14:39over
- 14:39the
- 14:39country,
- 14:40Right?
- 14:41But
- 14:42they
- 14:42haven't
- 14:42connected
- 14:43all
- 14:43the
- 14:43dots.
- 14:44They're
- 14:45doing
- 14:45these
- 14:45five
- 14:46things.
- 14:46They're
- 14:46all
- 14:47things
- 14:47to
- 14:47do,
- 14:48right?
- 14:48They're
- 14:48all
- 14:49things
- 14:49to
- 14:49do,
- 14:49but
- 14:50they
- 14:50have
- 14:50not.

- 14:52other,
- 14:52and
- 14:53they're
- 14:53not
- 14:53connected
- 14:54to

- 14:54So
- 14:55then
- 14:55there
- 14:55has
- 14:55this
- 14:56huge
- 14:56coherence
- 14:57drift

- 14:59aware
- 14:59of.

- 15:04which
- 15:04one's

- 16:32me
- 16:33is
- 16:33that
- 16:34when

- 16:48a
- 16:48minute
- 16:48and
- 16:49we'll

- 16:53into
- 16:53the
- 16:53ecosystem.
- 16:54But
- 16:55the
- 16:55purpose
- 16:56is
- 16:56human
- 16:57centered.
- 16:59The
- 16:59purpose
- 16:59is
- 17:00human
- 17:00centered.
- 17:01So

- 17:03purpose,
- 17:04which
- 17:04is
- 17:04human
- 17:05centered
- 17:05to
