In today's episode, I'm thrilled to introduce Gavin McCormack, a renowned educator, author, and philanthropist with a global impact. Gavin's illustrious career encompasses diverse roles, from crafting educational literature spanning various age groups to creating a captivating rhyming picture book chronicling the life of Sir Kenny Dalglish.
As a co-founder of Upschool.co, Gavin is deeply committed to empowering students with real entrepreneurship skills. Alongside this, he oversees his publishing firm and charity initiatives. Gavin's achievements include being named the 10th most influential educator worldwide by LinkedIn in 2020 and being nominated for Australian Principal of the Year. His unwavering commitment to educational equality is evident through his charitable efforts, such as running extensive distances to support schools and libraries in Nepal's Himalayan region.
Despite his remarkable success, Gavin remains grounded as a Montessori school principal, advocating for embracing failure as a catalyst for personal growth and emphasizing the importance of essential skill development in grooming future leaders. His inspiring message resonates profoundly with those seeking empowerment and potential.
Join me as I delve into the transformative power of education.
