EPISODE 324
What If You’re Doing the Right Work but the Wrong Way?
Biggest Takeaways You Don't Want to Miss:
- The chores of leadership are seductive because they feel familiar, safe, and socially acceptable. You’re praised for doing them even though they’re not changing your school.
- The real risk isn’t that you’ll burn out. The real risk is that you’ll get really good at managing a school you never actually meant to build.
- Most excuses are just permission slips to stay stuck in what’s familiar, even if it’s dysfunctional.
- Why do we spend so much time organizing dysfunction instead of solving it.
- What if the real risk is that you spend the next three years doing everything “right” only to realize you were building a school you don’t actually want?
If you’ve been doing everything they told you to do—giving feedback, supporting teachers, holding people accountable, working on culture—and still not seeing real change in your school, I made this episode for you. I’m breaking down why it feels like you’re doing all the right things and nothing’s moving and showing you the hidden trap that’s keeping you stuck.
So, if you’ve been feeling tired, discouraged, or like nothing’s moving no matter how hard you work, this episode will help you see what’s really going on and how to shift. You don’t need to do more. You need to do it differently.
It’s time to stop doing leadership chores and start doing the work that actually moves your school #LikeABuilder.
