MONDAY MATTERS with Jen Schwanke and Will Parker – 10 Lessons from Masterminds

In this week’s Monday Matters, I share with Jen a list of 10 takeaways from learning I’ve experienced with leadership groups this past school year.

We discuss several of them together and how these lessons have stood out in our thinking and growth.

Here are 10 takeaways we explored together:

1. Leadership growth happens best in community, not isolation.
2. Curiosity is often more powerful than certainty.
3. Small consistent actions create long-term momentum.
4. Reflection is essential to effective leadership.
5. Leadership requires aligning systems with purpose.
6. Healthy leadership includes caring for yourself and your relationships.
7. Leaders grow when they confront limiting beliefs.
8. Coaching questions often matter more than quick answers.
9. Great leadership multiplies the strengths of others.
10. Leadership is ultimately about becoming, not just accomplishing.

Listen in for the whole conversation. You also may find it helpful to use these reflection questions to go deeper on your own:

• What takeaway stands out to you as significant to your own leadership experience this school year?
• What lessons or principles do you hope to carry into next year’s development?
• What commitments to rest and rejuvenation are you making for the season ahead?

Thank you for listening to this week’s show, and thank you for doing what matters!
