Rather than offering quick fixes or rigid frameworks, this conversation explores why sustainable change in schools only happens when people work together. George explains why focusing on “we” over winning matters, how growing up in a tight-knit school community shaped his beliefs about leadership, and why every school and community requires its own solutions. This episode also addresses a core message of the book: no book, principle, or strategy can fix a school. Books can offer ideas, reflection, and perspective, but real solutions are created by educators, leaders, families, and communities working together within their unique context. This conversation is especially relevant for: School and district leaders navigating conflict or division Educators seeking trust-based leadership approaches Communities working to move initiatives forward collaboratively Anyone who believes schools improve when people come first Forward Together is not about having the answers. It is about creating the conditions for communities to find them, together.   ____   If you purchase this book, please fill out this form to get a free conversation guide and the chance to win some books!   https://forms.gle/pob95CVPnwsAgdZb7
