Join the Stressed Leaders Retreat
This brief, 2-day event—packed with seminars, training workshops, and mentorship programs—will teach educators to avoid burnout, be self-aware, thrive, and stay in the game.
I have had the opportunity to talk to Dan about his ideas for a Leadership Retreat on a couple of occasions. As a retired Superintendent, I can honestly say that I wish I had had opportunities of this type while I was active in the profession, particularly in my early career. I believe that this retreat will invigorate and inspire current Educational Leaders as they continue in their career path.
I have known Dan as a colleague and coached against his teams. He is a first class individual who is selfless and leads by example. I am honored to have grown a close friendship through the years, as well. He is always prepared, a true competitor, and has a great work ethic. He is always humble and carries himself with great dignity. I hold his character and integrity in high regard as he is always thinking of others before himself.
Watching Dan train hard while navigating life, family, and his career over these last 12 weeks has been nothing short of inspiring. I knew he was going to crush this half marathon and sure enough he did. The guy is built different.
Training with Dan and seeing the growth of this retreat is powerful.
