Join Chad and Jeff for a detailed recap of the Administrator Mastermind meeting that tackles a challenge every school leader faces: managing conflict and turning tough conversations into clear resolutions.

This episode focuses on the powerful strategies shared by the group after one member opened up about dealing with an uncooperative and unprofessional staff situation.

You'll learn actionable communication tactics, including:

• How to structure a conversation to prevent immediate defensiveness and encourage transparency.

• The technique of asking questions to confirm your own perception rather than attacking the other person's actions.

• When and how to directly call out unprofessional or unproductive behavior to protect yourself and maintain boundaries.

• The critical importance of not delaying difficult discussions, and what to do when things don't go as planned.

Discover how a supportive peer network provides the crucial space to prepare for, and recover from, these challenging leadership moments.

This is a special episode of the Teach Better Talk Podcast where we're celebrate our good friend, Joshua Stamper, as he launches his new Aspire To Lead Cohort
