Go Community!

Better Leaders Better SchoolsBetter Leaders Better Schools

This community is one of my favorite one-stop-shop tools to engage with other amazing school leaders. I use this online resource to gain insight, gather resources, and develop my leadership capacity.

The #1 Leadership Online community is generous and authentic, an antidote to the clutter and noise that other social media sites have become.

What makes this community different is that it is:

  • An investment, not free
  • A private community with the same goal
  • A conversation, not a variety of self-promoting presentations
  • Evergreen, not ephemeral
  • Focused on serving school leaders, not advertisers, companies, or investors

I highly recommend using Go! Community to enhance your leadership skills!
