@bookladyof3.bsky.social I would check out 5 Literacy Levers: Creating a Community of Readers by @gustafsonbrad.bsky.social He goes through all ages and I found it to be extremely adaptable. #TLSkyChat #TLSky

For anyone who wants to make progress on meaningful work. “Overcoming Education” isn’t your typical education-leadership book…

Leaders know communication is essential. But we don’t always understand the nuances of effective communication. Therefore, our teams end up occupying the same spaces without truly connecting. This leads to mistrust and missed opportunities. I wrote “Overcoming Education” to help.

This work we get to do is infinitely important. But it is not easy. I wrote “Overcoming Education” to help.

The book is designed to help leaders access their best thinking—so they can break complex challenges into small and solvable steps.

I’m still processing the awesomeness that was #MESPA2025. 🔥🔥🔥 I learned so much, and also had the chance to share two all-new sessions based on my latest book, “Overcoming Education.”

Special thanks to Michelle Krell & the MESPA team on an incredible conference. One of the best I’ve attended. 💯🙏🤩
