Shannon Buerk on engage2learn and Equitable Support for Educators

Educators need individual support and recognition for the important work they do.
Thinking about organizations as systems is a great way to learn to lead and affect change.

On this episode of the Getting Smart Podcast, Shawnee Caruthers is joined by Shannon Buerk, the Founder & CEO of engage2learn. Engage2learn is a platform that grows high-performance cultures in public schools to sustain local visions of learning for students. With 28 years of K-12 experience, Shannon has partnered with 225 school districts–impacting 2.3 million public education students to date.

A great team makes you a great leader.
