People-First Leadership in Classrooms and Communities

What does it mean to be a people-first leader, and what impact does that have on a school and community? Listen as Dr. Janet Pilcher sits down with Dr. Adam Leckie, Superintendent of Casa Grande Elementary School District, to hear how his district is creating a culture of gratitude by intentionally recognizing and celebrating the hard work of employees.

This episode addresses questions such as:

• What does it mean to be a people-first leader?
