"Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done, because they want to do it." Teach Different with Dwight D. Eisenhower - Leadership
How do you know what type of leadership style to use in any given situation?
Leadership is hard work, due in large part to the fact that people are often resistant to doing work and following the lead of others. As Eisenhower himself must have known as a commander in World War II, sometimes people must be convinced to follow orders whether they like it or not. But leadership also entails artful persuasion of individuals to do what they want done, out of their own self-interest and genuine desire. Knowing just the right strategy to use in different situations holds the key to a leader's success.
Join Steve and Dan Fouts – founders of Teach Different and twin brothers with over 50 years of teaching experience – along with Fonda Held and Molly Naylor, school leaders from the Denver and Aurora, Colorado area - as they discuss the delicate art of leadership, enriched by the Teach Different Method.

"Home is not where you live but where they understand you." - Teach Different with Christian Morgenstern - Identity
What does it mean to be “at home”?
The concept of home is more nuanced than it appears. On the one hand, we can think of home as a physical place of comfort and safety where needs for protection are met. But we can also think about home as a place where we feel listened to and where our humanity is acknowledged. Our unique definition of 'home' may change throughout our lives depending on who we meet and what experiences we have.
Join Steve and Dan Fouts – founders of Teach Different and twin brothers with over 50 years of teaching experience – along with Ari Gerzon-Kessler - author, consultant and family partnerships coordinator for Boulder Valley School District in Boulder, Colorado, as they discuss the meaning and importance of home, enriched by the Teach Different Method.
