Time for Teachership

In Podcast Episode 64 of the Time for Teachership Podcast, I am talking with Dr. Richard Shell, a global thought leader at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania and author of the book "The Conscience Code: Lead With Your Values, Advance Your Career". He is a skilled communicator across many diverse audiences. His students have included everyone from silicon valley entrepreneurs and Fortune 500 CEOs to FBI Hostage Negotiators, Navy SEALs, and UN PeaceKeepers.

The big dream for Dr. Shell is grounded in freedom dreaming and it's centered around advancing justice for students and families who are experiencing barriers to staying in school. This episode covers some of the main ideas from Richard's book such as social pressures, "the 4 questions", and more.

Do you have a moral compass that guides you? Browyn Harcourt, the principal of Croydon Community School, believes it's important to be driven by your values.

On this episode, we reflect on why doing what feels "right" can also feel hard but also why it's worth it. It can be isolating to follow your morals if you're the only one. But if no one steps up, who will? How long can we wait for someone else to take the first shot? Remember, you as one person, can make a difference. You are changing lives with each step forward. It doesn't mean you're changing everything on a macro-level, it means that the impact you do make is powerful and it tends to have a ripple effect.

In Podcast Episode 60 of the Time for Teachership Podcast, I am talking with Joyce Akridge who has dedicated 44 years of her life to Indianapolis Public Schools. She has served in various positions from principal mentor to lead principal where she has demonstrated personal and professional excellence in leadership for the success of all students. She now runs her own coaching company with her daughter to help other school leaders achieve success in their own school districts. In this episode, Joyce discusses what's possible in her dreams for education while critiquing the current inequities that still need to be defeated. Students don't often expect their lives outside of academia to matter to school staff but what has made Joyce so loved by her student communities is her care for students in all of their potential whether that is social, emotional, etc. I think you're going to love this episode. It's really inspiring! I hope you find it helpful and remember to check out my blogpost at www.lindsaybethlyons.com/blog — which now features transcripts of each episode!

In today's podcast, I am discussing an adaptive leadership approach to data analysis. Adaptive leadership is best suited for long-standing adaptive challenges, not necessarily technical challenges. I go into the four ways that adaptive challenges are showing up and I also discuss questions to ask shareholder groups to identify hidden alliances that may not be evident at first glance. I hope you enjoy this discussion!

Today, I'm diving into Episode 2 of my Leading for Justice Mini Series. I am exploring how students experience school and how we can measure those experiences. I talk about creation, evaluation, perception and implementation of student surveys. Break down a few key concepts of creating a survey and - so important - tell you what to avoid so you don't DESTROY the trust you have built with your students when it comes to your own surveys. I think you're going to love this episode, it's very insightful and takes away the uncertainty of creating your own student survey.
