Does it feel like your principal isn't listening to you? Is it difficult to inspire change on campus because it seems no one understands your role?In this episode, I highlight the power of social capital and the role it plays in school counseling advocacy efforts. It’s a long game, and I talk about the value of understanding your environment and how it influences your counseling approach, as well as the importance of fostering strong bonds with your administrative team and the art of advocating for change "from the inside out." By the time you're done listening, you'll have a fresh perspective on your role as a school counselor and your professional relationships on campus. You'll have the secret for building the foundations of great communication and will finally have a roadmap for becoming heard.Mentioned in this Episode:School for School Counselors Mastermind*********************Our goal at School for School Counselors is to help school counselors stay on fire, make huge impacts for students, and catalyze change for our roles through grassroots advocacy and collaboration.
