In this episode of Rethink Possible, host Bob McDowell speaks with Dr. Noel Schmidt, the superintendent of Rock Ridge Public Schools, who shares how to focus on the importance of two key strategies in managing change in education: going slow to go fast and finding out what the average person really thinks. Noel highlights how he and his team implemented strategies to uncover the opinions of the majority rather than the negative few. Superintendent Schmidt dives into the process of consolidating two school districts and building new facilities while developing new programs and connecting with the community to strengthen the project-based learning systems.
