Dr. Byram talked about the shelf-life of SAVI training. How has the SAVI shelf-life been for you?
I have been more aware of conversation patterns throughout the week. As an administrator at a public high school, many people spend a lot of time explaining to me each day - students, teachers, parents. And there are many conversations I'm involved with on a weekly basis (lots of them emotionally charged) where my role is to listen, and suggest course of action.
Without overtly prompting myself, I've been pleased to find myself thinking things like, "Boy, there's a lot of 'red' conversation going on here", or "It would be good to move this conversation out of facts and opinion, and get some 'green' communication going".
Without stretching to fabricate some connection, I can authentically report that this last week I've been much more aware of the communication I'm either directly or indirectly a part of.
Anyone else...
