Welcome fellow Recovering Traditionalists to Episode 17.  Today we are looking at Why Leaders Should Eat Last.

Part of changing the way we teach math is building our own understanding of the math and how kids learn math.  But another part is helping others with that change as well. When I was put in the role of math specialist I had no clue how to lead others and that’s essential what you are doing if you are a math coach, instructional coach, etc, yet many of us were never really prepared for that part of the job.  I know I wasn’t.

So I went on a quest to learn more about leading people.  How do we help others make change and then sustain that change?

One of the books I came across while on that quest is the book Leaders Eat Last: Why Some Teams Pull Together and Others Don’t by Simon Sinek. Listen to the episode and get the show notes here: buildmathminds.com/17
