Superintendents Leadership Podcast
Leadership isn’t about getting it right every time.
It’s about showing up, learning, and making better choices the next time. An Imperfect Leader: The Superintendents and Leadership Podcast is for superintendents and district leaders navigating the beautiful, messy work of public education.
On this podcast, we leave perfection at the door. Through real stories, candid conversations, and reflective after-action reviews, we talk about what happened, what was missed, what we learned — and what we might do differently next time.
If you’ve ever felt the pressure to be flawless in a complicated system, you’ll feel right at home here.
Hear from fellow superintendents and leaders on:
What actually happens behind the scenes
The frustrations no one talks about
The wins worth celebrating
And the tough calls that keep all of us up at night.
