In this energizing and deeply insightful episode, Dr. Riley Williams sits down with Lisa Parry—award-winning principal, TEDx speaker, and co-founder of the Good to Great Teaching mentoring program. With over 30 years in education, Lisa unpacks her leadership philosophy, from teaching one class a year as a principal to mentoring new educators through disillusionment—not just burnout.
We explore what it means to build schools that are relentlessly focused on relationships, learning, and instructional integrity. Lisa shares actionable strategies on likable leadership, conflict resolution, and teacher retention, plus her mindset-shifting approach to growth: “Be 1% better every day.”
If you’re a leader navigating complexity, a teacher seeking clarity, or a changemaker trying to bridge vision and practice—this episode is for you.
