Leadership Beyond Titles
In this episode, Aimee sits down with Andrew McCausland, a passionate classroom teacher who carved his own leadership path when traditional roles didn’t align with his interests. Andrew shares his inspiring journey of seeking out and creating leadership opportunities, from launching a STEM Club and LEGO League to becoming an Instructional Leader in evidence-based teaching practices. Despite facing challenges like time constraints, balancing family life and the mental strain of constant new responsibilities, Andrew’s drive to lead from within his current role kept him pushing forward.
Andrew’s story is a powerful reminder that you don’t need a title to be a leader - you just need the courage to step up and create your own opportunities. Tune in to hear how Andrew turned obstacles into stepping stones, embraced the stress and excitement of new challenges and found recognition through relentless passion and commitment. Whether you’re a teacher, aspiring leader or simply someone looking to break the mould, this episode will inspire you to rethink what leadership can look like.
