From the Playground to the Foreground
A conversation about change and the benefit and concept of necessary suffering
You will hear a great book recommendation, how and why Brent went from clergy to a leader in the education sector, and why we call him the bruiser. The conversation tackles challenges in education today, how hard it is to transition from being a man at the center of the stage to one who likes to play behind the scenes to get things done, and the concept of necessary suffering and what it has meant to him.
We share a few great memories of our years from K-12 and our assessments of we have changed over many years but staying close and keeping up through the journey. This conversation will have you thinking about how you view change and might even spark a conversation with those in your circles about how they deal with change in their everyday lives.
