Dorina Sackman-Ebuwa - The Need for Honest Leadership - The #InnovatorsMindset #Podcast S4 EP17

George Couros begins this episode of The Innovator’s Mindset Podcast with a simple question that he asks to tell whether or not a principal is leading and providing mentorship. When principals can do both - give mentorship and lead a school - they help create a more effective learning environment. This episode with Dorina Sackman-Ebuwa, who is absolutely incredible, is a great reminder that while we may not always like the feedback we have to give or the feedback we get, taking that feedback and sharing feedback will make us better for the students we serve. Be sure to add a special happy birthday wish to Dorina (aka Ms. Dorito) in the comments below!
