Thriving relationships founded on goodness, beauty and truth
I am an educator who writes. I write about leadership, learning, and working together to make a better world. My words are often drawn from my background as a classroom teacher, school superintendent and educational trainer. But they are just as likely to be shaped by my faith and the conviction that God’s love for me compels me to love the people he has placed in my pathway. What I have to say is learned and formed in dialog with my best teachers, the leaders who taught me and colleagues who generously share their wisdom with me.
