I’ve got a bit of a treat on the podcast today. I’m bringing you an interview with somebody whose work I’ve become very familiar with lately, and it’s been truly wonderful to find somebody exploring the same path that I am.
Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath is a neuroscientist and educator who specializes in human learning, memory, and brain stimulation. There is literally no one better to undertake the mission of improving our schools than Jared. As well as conducting research and lecturing at Harvard, he has worked at over 50 international schools, and I can’t wait for you to experience the value he has to offer all you educational leaders.
I was in New York recently for a networking event with some amazing people. They were the kind of people that when you are speaking to them, they really care and they want to know absolutely everything about you. Just the way these people were was so eye-opening to me and I came back with a ton of realizations around influence to share with you guys.
We are now into June, and that means that most of you, if not all of you, are at the end of your school year. That’s amazing, you did it! But you and I both know, it’s not long before you have to really focus on what’s to come next year.
We’re are officially into June now, and the topic that I have for you this month is absolutely critical for any effective leader. We’re talking about influence and how to be an influential leader. Some people think of influence as being manipulative or consider it a somewhat dirty word, but that attitude is not going to get you anywhere.
