I have had principals who discouraged faculty from getting
together in frequent faculty meetings, across-grade-level
meetings, or other types of groupings for fear that they
would become too unified and then rebel. Then I've had
others who made time for teachers to be together and
rearranged everything from schedules to furniture to
encourage conversation among faculty. I recently heard
someone say that a good leaders will always encourage his
staff to become united, and that only a weak leader would
fear the power of a united faculty. What do you think?
