Overview
Staying connected to your purpose as a leader is just as important as meeting the daily demands of school administration. Retired superintendent Scott A. Laliberte knows this too well. By applying an athlete’s mindset to educational leadership, he offers a path for leaders to not only endure their careers but thrive. At its heart is reflective practice that can fuel any educator.
