A fresh, replicable approach to a stale system. A masterful ruckus for effective leadership that moves the status quo in Danny’s new book. Ariel’s gift to elevate the voices of authors. Proof of efficacy, pizza and fun packed into one spot. Immediate life and leadership transformation to your environment.  Mastermind inspires and motivates leaders to face hard choices with support. “A lot of school leadership books are for changing your school in some way. They're about helping your students, which this is, but this is really for you (Ruckus Maker). This is for you as a school leader to become your best version of yourself and that's something that you don't see in a lot of school leadership books that are out there.  I've read a ton of them. I've published dozens of them. I know that for a fact this is not a message that you see in a lot of other places.”  -Ariel Curry   Full Transcript Danny Bauer Transcript   Ariel Curry’s Resources & Contact Info: Ariel Curry Editorial: Ariel Curry Mastermind: Unlocking Talent Within Every School Leader Twitter Facebook Instagram LinkedIn   Looking for more?
