About this episode

Is your staff truly aligned, or are you constantly chasing, checking, and correcting just to keep things moving? Hidden misalignment is one of the biggest reasons schools struggle to sustain momentum and most principals don't recognize it until it's too late. In this episode, we'll explore the three biggest ways misalignment is slowing you down, how to tell if your school has surface-level vs. true alignment, and what the most effective principals do differently to make alignment automatic. If you've ever thought, "Things are mostly fine, so why does it feel like I'm pushing so hard?" then this episode is for you. Tune in now to learn how to build a school where alignment happens naturally #LikeABuilder.
