Your Facilities Culture Is Slipping. Fix It.

Hey, I’m Burke.

I lead school operations — the work that starts before sunrise and keeps everything moving: buses, boilers, budgets, you name it.

Every week, I share what actually works in the field — not theory, not fluff, just lessons from real schools with real problems.

If you’ve ever fixed a crisis before the principal even knew it happened, you’re in the right place.

Let’s get to it.

Your Facilities Culture Is Slipping. Fix It.

Culture in facilities teams doesn’t break overnight.

It frays — one eye roll at a meeting, one ignored suggestion, one new hire who gets trained by the wrong person.

Then one day you wake up and realize…

You’ve got solid workers with a shaky attitude. Or worse, a few toxic ones dragging the rest down.

So how do you fix it?

The Big Myth

People think you need a retreat, a slogan, or a t-shirt.

You don’t.

Culture isn’t what you say in a staff meeting. It’s what your team thinks is okay when you’re not in the room.

That means fixing culture starts with fixing what gets ignored.
