Finding solutions is not always about finding the answer, but it can be about asking a different question. Couros opens this episode of The Innovator’s Mindset Podcast with a reflection on why we should be asking “Why are people staying in the profession of teaching” instead of “Why are people leaving the teaching profession?” Dr. Mott joins this episode to talk about her new book, Teacherverence, where she analyzes what is making teachers stay in education.

“Contextual Joy: Finding joy in the right context.” - Dr. Jen Mott
