One of your most important jobs as a leader is to define reality. You have to figure out what is really happening in your organization if you want to make it better.

And today’s guest is Alberto Carvalho, the Superintendent of Miami-Dade County Public Schools, and someone who knows exactly how to define reality.

He leads the fourth largest school district in the nation, and it’s quite the success story today. 

But it sure wasn’t when Alberto took charge. Schools were failing. The finances were an absolute mess. And there was a real lack of conviction in leadership positions.

Alberto had to define a tough reality at Miami-Dade. But once he understood what wasn’t working, he used it as the foundation for their turnaround – and you’ll hear exactly how he’s done it. 

This conversation is going to give you the inspiration and courage you need to tackle whatever tough reality you may be facing right now.
