  • # 76: Culturize Your School (With Jimmy Casas)

    Have you ever wondered what it takes to be a the kind of educational leader that nurtures excellence while building a powerful sense of community?

    I’ve got another gem for you today…the one and only Jimmy Casas!

    In our wide-ranging conversation, we explore:

    • the biggest challenge in education,
    • how to become a leader regardless of your title,
    • how to delegate effectively,
    • how to reach tough-to-teach kids without lowering expectations,
    • the power of second chances, one of his top anxieties as a school leader,
    • and the magic of establishing student-centred school culture.
    • Jimmy casas is the best-selling author of Culturize and Stop Right Now, a speaker, and leadership coach, and currently serves as an adjunct professor at Drake University in Educational Leadership. He was an award-winning principal who served for twenty-two years as a school leader and is now consulting with and coaching educators, principals, and superintendents across the us.

      You can find him and more about his books on social media at casasjimmy or online at jimmycasas.com

      Throughout the book Culturize, Jimmy refers to his 4-point-core-values that have guided his practice as a leader and we touch on many of these throughout the interview:

      1. Be a Champion for Kids – 3 rs’ ...relationship, relationship, relationship It turns out that most kids don’t succeed because a lack in these following three areas: confidence capability, and connection.
      2. Expect Excellence- Choose empathy vs. sympathy and through effective scaffolding, hold the people you serve and your stakeholders to a high standard.
      3. Carry the Banner- Be positive about your school. Branding happens...you can either control the message or let someone else do it. Social media is here to stay, so it makes sense to learn how to harness it.
      4. **Be a Merchant of Hope **
      Give people chances, make your mistakes right, and believe in people.

      In culturize, Jimmy asks leaders to reflect on their practice using the following questions:

      -Do your words inspire success or shame?
      -Do you acknowledge the needs of others?
      -Do you dismiss the gifts of others?

      Hope you enjoy the episode!
