Have you ever felt like the traditional leadership models just don’t fit? 🤔 Then you NEED to listen to our latest episode of An Imperfect Leader: The Superintendents and Leadership Podcast with the incredible Dr. Quintin Shepherd.
🎧 We dive deep into #transformational #leadership, the power of language, and how to truly connect with your #community. 🤝
Here are 4️⃣ things you absolutely should listen for:
💡The distinction between “#complicated” and “#complex” problems: Learn why applying a “one right way” approach to complex issues can backfire.
💡The power of “#feedforward” vs. “#feedback”: Discover how shifting your language can transform how you engage with your community.
💡#Vulnerability and #Compassion as Leadership Strengths: Hear how Dr. Shepherd’s experience with Halloween led him to learn that vulnerability and compassion are essential to effective leadership.
💡Leadership as a series of failures: Understand the importance of viewing leadership as a journey with learning experiences rather than a quest for perfection.
You don’t want to miss this conversation! 🚀
