Get ready to meet the principal who’s rewriting the rulebook - one hallway conversation at a time. In this energising chat, we’re joined by Jared Lamb (commonly known as @principal_lamb), the dynamic school leader known for ditching the principal’s office in favour of a rolling cart, 20,000 steps a day, and a relentless commitment to connection.
We dive into Jared’s bold decision to lead from the heart (and the hallways), why joy should be part of every school’s strategic plan, and how teachers can embrace servant leadership—no matter their role.
Key Takeaways with Principal Lamb:
- How to lead with your feet - Why Jared traded his office for a cart
- What servant leadership looks like in action.
- What teachers really need right now, and how schools can step up.
- How fun, laughter, and play build stronger school cultures.
- The power of perspective as a leader and teacher
- How social media helps Jared support educators globally.
- Jared’s non-negotiables for building a connected, thriving school.
Whether you’re an early-career teacher looking for a spark or a seasoned educator craving authentic school culture, this episode will leave you inspired to lead, teach, and connect in ways that truly matter.

Alisha and Ashleigh
