Customer feedback from the classroom
Article Abstract:
High-school principals have too many responsibilities to spend enough time interacting with teachers and students. Because of time constraints, one principal decided to develop a customer feedback form that would tell her what teacher needs she is not meeting. After administering a survey, the principal and her staff analyzed the results and used them to develop an action plan. This approach to performance measurement has proven to be an effective tool for communication.
