Update: 2026-01-06
Description
Welcome to the first episode of 2026! As the hallways fill back up this January, school leaders often find themselves running on two tracks: staying present with students while simultaneously looking toward the horizon of hiring season. This episode explores why hiring isn't just an administrative task—it’s the deep, human work of culture building and imagining the future of your team.
Host Adam Busch dives into the tension of professional growth, addressing the unspoken guilt many educators feel when considering a new path. Whether you are looking to "grow where you are planted" or preparing to move to a new garden, this episode offers a reflective look at how to support colleagues in their transitions and how to ensure your school is a place people want to join—and are allowed to grow out of.
