A School Leader’s Playbook by Connecting Through Conversation

The Conversations That Keep You Up at Night


Listen Later

You know those tough conversations school leaders need to have and don’t want to? The ones you avoid, delay, or hope will resolve on their own? In this episode, we unpack what gets in the way, why waiting makes it worse, and why an imperfect conversation is better than none at all.


In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why leaders avoid tough conversations (even when they know they shouldn’t)

  • Why bad news doesn’t get better with time

  • How avoiding the conversation impacts your culture and your team

  • Why softening the message can cause it to miss entirely


Part of a 6-episode playbook for the toughest conversations school leaders face.
