I've spent eight years watching brilliant, dedicated principals do everything right — and still hit the same invisible ceiling. More effort. More initiatives. More of themselves poured into the work. And yet the results plateau, the staff drifts back, and in the quiet moments nobody else sees, the principal starts asking the most dangerous question in education: if I'm doing everything I was trained to do… why isn't it working? In this episode, I'm giving that ceiling a name — the Leadership Ceiling — and I'm going to show you exactly what it looks like in your building, why it has nothing to do with your ability or your effort, and why the principals who finally break through it don't do it by becoming better leaders. They do it by deciding to build #LikeABuilder.
