When Melissa Emler started bidding on RFPs to grow her event management business, she looked through a variety of opportunities and thought, ‘We could definitely do that.' But after a year of trying to figure it out on her own, Melissa wasn't winning contracts. And the frustration of losing left her playing small. Today, Melissa has changed her approach. She has identified the differentiators that set her organization apart and started seeking out best-fit opportunities for her business. Melissa is Owner of Modern Learners, a company that's designing the future of learning by building community, content and events. Prior to Modern Learners, Melissa enjoyed a traditional career in education, serving as a special education teacher, principal and Statewide Systems Coach for Universal Design for Learning. On this episode of the podcast, Melissa joins me to discuss how her proposal responses have changed since she started working with The RFP Success Company and why she only bids on RFPs in her team's niche. Melissa walks us through the process of ‘shredding the RFP,' explaining how it helped her uncover Modern Learners' unique value proposition—prioritizing community over course content. Listen in for Melissa's insight on using aggregators to identify opportunities and learn how investing in the right support helped Modern Learners leverage focused bidding for the win! Key Takeaways  How Melissa transitioned from a traditional career in education to entrepreneurship How prioritizing community over course differentiates Modern Learners from other organizations in the event management space Melissa's journey to finding opportunities for Modern Learners through RFPs How Melissa's RFP responses have changed since she started working with the RFP Success Company What it means to ‘shred the RFP' and how it helped Melissa identify her team's differentiators How Melissa is developing a strategy for networking before the RFP drops Why it's worth it to invest in support to help you respond to RFPs Why Melissa only bids on RFPs in her team's niche that they already have systems to execute How Melissa's mindfulness around the capacity of her team impacts which RFPs she bids on Melissa's experiences using aggregators to identify opportunities How the event management space evolved before, during and after COVID (and how that changed Melissa's approach to finding business) Melissa's commitment to the process of bidding on business with RFPs Connect with Melissa Modern Learners Modern Learners on LinkedIn Melissa on LinkedIn Email missy@modernlearners.com Connect with Lisa  Lisa's Website Lisa on Twitter Lisa on Facebook Lisa on LinkedIn The RFP Success Company on YouTube The RFP Success Company on LinkedIn Subscribe on iTunes Email podcast@rfpsuccess.com Resources Hopin altMBA Change School Wisconsin Procurement Institute Forecasting the Future of the SLED Market on The RFP Success Show EP111 RFPSchoolWatch Book a Call with the RFP Success Company Dare to Be Influential: Maximizing Your Positive Influence While Still Being True to You by Lisa Rehurek The RFP Success Book by Lisa Rehurek The RFP Success Institute

Today, we're talking to Melissa Emler, who leads a community of educators & administrators over at Modern Learners. As you might guess from the name of her company, Missy has been through the wringer this year! The pandemic brought an intense urgency to the work she's been doing and the change she's been trying to create in education for years. Suddenly, schools all over the world knew they needed a new approach to learning. But that wasn't the only thing creating twists & turns for Missy this year. In this conversation, you'll hear how Missy balances leading her company with working in the "lab" of a day job, the 3-part framework she's used to lead educators through big change, and how she created space for conversation about injustice and systemic racism in education. Plus, you'll hear how Missy uses a key question about change and figuring out who we want to become to meet the moment to lead herself and others.

I always ask what they are trying to accomplish. We need to make sure that what we believe about learning connects to what’s happening in the world. So often, what we do in schools and what we do in classrooms may or may not match up to what we believe about learning. Do our kids find joy in our classrooms and what is the source of that joy? We never need to fix students. We need to create the spaces and the experiences that remove the barrier. Really hone in on what you want to learn and how that impacts the learners in your classroom. How are we celebrating all of our learners and how are we celebrating learning more than achievement? If we really want to learn and we really want to do the best work for our kids, it isn’t just roses, it is kind of a lot of thorns too. You have to find the balance.

Melissa Emler is the Director of Community at Modern Learning Online media company to help schools change and be better. Really powerful conversations are happening regularly. The Testing Emperor Finally has no Clothes Modernlearners.com/jethro All of the onus for learning is placed on the teacher. It is the responsibility of teachers to create the conditions for learning to happen. Communication beats compliance, every time. Learning happens through feedback and questioning. It is the student to communicate questions and understanding. Going gradeless or standards based grading doesn’t really communicate learning. We haven’t really had a conversation about what we mean by “learning”. Seymour Sarason’s “What do you mean by learning?“ People are learning when they want to learn more. It requires co-creating the curriculum Our practices do not match our beliefs. The amount of time we spend thinking, talking, planning for standardized tests. Giving prizes for testing= :( Beliefs must drive assessment. Challenge assumptions, biases and orthodoxies that influence assessment practice. Communication beats compliance, every time. Explore status quo-busting assessment solutions to provide more authentic and real-world choices. Let students learn about how they learn. Measure what matters. Invest in TRUST. So important to trust teachers to create the conditions for learning to happen. If we get to a common set of beliefs then we don’t need to pressure teachers to do well on a test. Standards and tests change based on political issues. how to be a transformative leader? Be strong in your individual beliefs.

In this episode we chat with Melissa Emler, a former principal and now Director of Innovations, about using Facebook as your tool to communicate with your parents and community. While we thought we were great at using Facebook to communicate with our parents/community, Melissa blew our minds with awesome ideas and better ways to tell our story and engage our families! Listen to learn how Melissa used social media interns to help manage her school Facebook page, which also helped her high school students learn digital citizenship and great communication skills. Did you know that Faceook's algorithm has changed, so unless you're posting something every day, your community is likely not seeing your school posts showing up in their feed! Melissa teaches us how to change this and how to inform your families of this change. She talks about the use of Facebook analytics, how to make posting easier with a content calendar and then blew our minds about utilizing Facebook live. Melissa hosts the podcast, On the Vendor Floor, and has a few episodes that you can listen to about managing your school Facebook page.
