Educator / Motivational Speaker / Leadership Coach / Author / I love students, teachers, culture, leadership, and public education. That’s what I post about.
I remember a teacher telling me: “When you’re surrounded by superstars… it makes you want to be better than you are.” That’s the power of collaboration -- the power of positive peer pressure. The best teachers don’t just inspire their students; they inspire their colleagues.
Being an instructional leader doesn’t always mean you are providing expertise in teaching and learning. Sometimes... it just means you are helping to shape the conditions in which your teachers can thrive. Sometimes, it’s just about building the right culture.
