In this episode of Hire Ground, hosts Christina Greenberg and Josh Czupryk tackle the growing crisis of leadership fatigue in K12 education. With teachers hesitant to step into school leadership and principals wary of central office roles, they explore how to make leadership sustainable again—amid political pressures, enrollment battles, and expanding demands. Joined by Natasha Trivers, current Executive Director of the Broad Center at the Yale School of Management and former CEO of Democracy Prep Public Schools. They discuss neurodiversity in teams, the importance of clarity and boundaries, and how to train the next generation of equity-driven, resilient leaders.
