73. The 5 Signs of a Thriving Leader and School
Play • 20 min

This is a re-air of one of the most downloaded episodes in my special summer series that originally aired last year. I wanted to bring this back for those who are newer listeners. 

 

This summer series was all about the different ways that you can prepare yourselves for an upcoming school year. After nearly two decades in this field and speaking with hundreds of school owners and directors. There are very specific patterns of behavior I have noticed in successful school leaders.

In this episode, I share the top 5 signs of a thriving school leader and how you can incorporate them as you continue to build your school of excellence and leave your legacy.

 

In a nutshell, I speak about:

  • Communication and how a thriving leader is one that builds time into their calendar to speak to their teams.
  • The importance of celebrating wins and success even though it is very easy to get pulled into hardships and what is and isn't working.
  • The biggest mindset shift that school leaders need to make by investing in their people.
  • How strategy can be likened to planning a trip and how it plays a key role in successful school leadership.
  • How radical self-awareness will change your entire life.

 

… and so much more!
