Leading Educators Made Simple

We can build a great argument the times we are living through right now in America and perhaps the World are amongst the most turbulent and perplexing in recent history. Even before being hit over the head with a global pandemic, the world was wrestling with challenges presented by issues of social justice and environmental, cultural, and economic angst. Ironically, these issues and many others have been exacerbated by technology, which while having the potential to solve many problems, instead seems to create new conditions of access, confusion, and proximity never before imagined. These complex problems of today brought on by politics, the pandemic, and the myriad of other factors means the pressure on school and district leaders has never been higher. Steven Lucas is a current school superintendent who combines his experience as a school leader with lessons learned as a former Marine Drill Instructor to take this challenge head on. See how you can implement certain foundational leadership practices today to help you be a more effective leader and both simplify and improve your quality of life. Leaders don't have to be liked, but when leadership is done right, leaders are not just liked, but loved and revered.
