    Leading People, Not Systems

    Welcome back to The Commons, a podcast featuring conversations and contemplation about the challenges of school life and leadership, hosted by Dr. Brian Phillips.

In this episode, Brian Phillips explores that idea, reflecting on how we can lead our schools and home schools in ways that bless those we serve. Remember: subscribe, rate, review! Hosted on Acast.
