How About a Free Monograph You Can Use to Train Your Board?
I recently published a monograph on one of the most important board topics ever: board financial oversight. Get it for free, along with other monographs as I produce them by subscribing below.
Check Out My YouTube Channel
I began publishing occasional training videos on YouTube in June 2022. If you’re looking for micro-training content to use in board meetings, these are perfect because they’re short, free, and highly relevant. And, each video has its own high quality handout.
A Few Sentences About Me
When I dropped out of high school in 1977 and joined the Marine Corps, neither I nor any of my friends and family could have imagined that my life’s trajectory would ultimately take a 180. In retrospect, In it does indeed seem an unlikely path that I became a school leader over 30 years ago, earned a PhD in Education, and later became a Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE).
For nearly 20 years, I’ve been using my experiences and qualifications to help other charter school leaders and board members build sustainable schools that prepare kids to be successful, both as individuals and as citizens of a free society.
