“Joe talks about growing up in San Francisco’s Tenderloin district in the 80’s, what led him into the classroom, and how he led as a Principal for 6 years. Joe unpacks the difference between bringing a vision and co-constructing a vision with staff, the need to slow it all down, and  power-hoarding. We conclude with the power of racial affinity as a space for differentiation learning and a vehicle for healing, leveraging our differences as our strengths, and understanding the need to co-conspire around shared goals.” (listen the podcast here)
