The Mindset You Need to Succeed in Leadership: Lean in to Listen and learn.
Welcome to another episode of Elevate Education! In this episode, our host, Matt Palaoro, welcomes Jeffco Public Schools’ Superintendent Tracy Dorland on the show. Together, they dive into the mindset you need to succeed in leadership: leaning in to listen and learn. As educators and leaders, Tracy emphasizes that curiosity serves as the cornerstone for a fulfilling career. It's the difference between stagnation and growth, frustration, and impact. Tracy's journey from teacher to superintendent showcases the impact of curiosity. Central to Tracy's leadership philosophy is the mantra "lean in to listen and learn." This approach prioritizes service to students, families, and staff over simply relying on expertise. Tracy believes that true leadership involves understanding diverse perspectives and fostering collaboration to make decisions that best serve the community. Tracy's commitment to building a community of leaders is evident in Jeffco Public Schools' strategic plan, Jeffco Thrives. Through inclusive collaboration, the plan aims to provide extraordinary experiences for students, support staff development, ensure operational efficiency, and strengthen community partnerships.
