When it comes to making a difference in the communities you lead, it is imperative to be connected to them. This can come in a plethora of ways, and this week we put a spotlight on how Former President Barack Obama tried to maintain a connection with the people he led during his time at the White House. Tune in to the first episode of Series 5 of the PiXL Pearls Podcast with Rachel Johnson, CEO of PiXL, as she explores the difference 10 Letters A Day made, how it shaped Obama's leadership legacy, and how we can implement this into our daily lives as leaders.

In your leadership, what do you stand for and what do you need to know to make that a reality?

Featuring Aide Madrigal and Elleanna Molina from Clovis Unified District School, California, USA

PiXL Pearls are short reflections on life and leadership, in schools. They are here to inspire, encourage, motivate, and challenge.

The PiXL network spans thousands of schools across key stages 1-5. We collaborate, share best practice, and equip leaders throughout the educational system.

Series 2, 3, 4 and 5 are presented by Rachel Johnson, CEO of PiXL, and Series 1 was presented by Founder-Director Sir John Rowling.

They both draw on literature, life, and experience in leadership to explore different elements of what it is to be a good leader and how we can become even better leaders, both in and out of schools.
