5. Shyla Kinhal - Leading for Equity through Literacy
How does your self-talk provide a barometer for your own alignment and integrity in a situation?
How do you build trust in order to give growth-producing feedback?
How do you keep your fire fueled despite the challenges of leading for systemic change?
In this episode, Shyla Kinhal, the Director of Literacy for Evanston Skokie School District, shares her extensive career journey and expertise in literacy and equity in education. From teaching in NYC to her current role, Shyla discusses the impact of her personal experiences, her strategic implementation of literacy programs, and her leadership philosophy. The conversation explores the importance of community, integrity, meaningful work, and celebrating progress in driving educational change.
