‘If you’ve met one leader, you’ve met one leader.’ Our experiences and our genetics/ biology drive us as humans… and our unique and diverse gifts offer opportunities, through self-awareness, for contextual leadership.
I’ve invested my professional time as a senior level school district leader, a principal and assistant principal in multiple school settings, a classroom teacher, and an instructor at the college level. I attend to the intersection between organizational culture, growth, and success. As a systems thinker, I support folks by asking the questions that will lead to collective efficacy and deeper stakeholder involvement in decision making for the good of the many, the few, and the one.
Right now, I’m interested in how leadership needs to be nimble and how each of us need to employ deep listening, seeking to understand one another. I believe this action will ensure sustainability and continued growth (for our clients, our staff, ourselves). I’m asking the question, “How can we lead so that EACH can thrive?”
I love to think about big ideas, support folks in putting them into practice, and laugh along the way.
