In this Brewed for Leadership episode, we break down what separates great school leaders from weak school leaders—and why it shows up in culture, instruction, discipline, and staff morale. You’ll hear the habits great principals lean on: clear expectations, consistent follow-through, high visibility, and coaching that actually improves teaching. We’ll also call out the common patterns of weak leadership—avoidance, inconsistency, favoritism, and “initiative overload”—and how those choices quietly drain a school. Practical takeaways included: quick self-checks, staff trust builders, and a few “starting Monday” moves to strengthen your leadership presence without burning out.

Brewed for Leadership is a podcast for educators and school leaders who want real strategies—not buzzwords—for leading schools with clarity, courage, and heart. Each episode blends practical leadership moves, honest conversations about the challenges behind the scenes, and actionable ideas you can use immediately to strengthen culture, support teachers, and keep students at the center. It’s leadership talk with a caffeinated edge—because the work is hard, the stakes are high, and your cup deserves to be refilled too.
