Stephen M. R. Covey is the author of Wall Street Journal #1 Bestseller, Trust and Inspire: How Truly Great Leaders Unleash Greatness in Others.  Joining Dr. Jackson for a truly inspirational conversation, Covey believes that even though our world has changed drastically, our leadership style has not.

Most organizations, teams, schools, and families today still operate from a model of “Command and Control,” focusing on hierarchies and compliance from people. But because of the changing nature of the world, the workforce, the work itself, and the choices we have for where and how to work and live, these old rules of leadership no longer apply. Mr. Covey says that, “truly great leaders can create the right conditions to awaken the potential within a person” and that “they curate conditions in which a person can flourish. As a result, they see that person rise beyond every imaginable expectation.”

The 2023-2024 school year has arrived. For EdLeaders, even in the midst of all of the challenges (budgetary and others), creating and curating conditions where students, teachers, staff, and administrators all “rise beyond every imaginable expectation” is imperative. Creating those conditions occurs through authentic relationships building and deepening trust to inspire all those around us to greater heights.
