Just reread A Beautiful Constraintβa powerful reminder to shift from "we can't" to "we can if." Schools face constraints, but bold, propelling questions can spark creative solutions and inspire meaningful change. Letβs reimagine what's possible in 2025! #WeCanIf #EducationLeadership #Innovation

I put 800 miles on the odometer this past week, meeting.
Hereβs what I learned along the way:
1. Meet your audience where they are.
2. Before the meeting, understand what they truly value.
3. Bring what they value to the meeting.
4. Ask for feedback.
5. Bring cookies πͺ.
