I picked an educational leadership podcast because it is a passion of mine but also because professionally we are...Challenged by uncertainty and anxiety working out of our homes is overwhelming Fallen leaders are falling all around us and rightfully so
Cancel culture is now the norm We still can't get this diversity thing on the right path and
Dammit, we are tired!
Going forward we need to look outside the old leadership paradigm. We need tangible insights and skills to turn this uncertainty into success. And I want Unlikely to bring those skills to you!
