Culture is the personality of the group. But how do we engage it? Change it? And challenge it?
And how do schools - buildings and classrooms alike - intentionally create and define culture?
In this episode, Brian and Kasey invite Jerry Jones (not that one) onto the show to talk about people, communities, and culture. And it is brilliant. Largely because Jerry says things like, "Curiosity lives in the pause." And after listening to this episode, it just makes sense.
Jerry Jones is a culture vulture, cross-cultural trainer, writer, and family man. He writes The Culture Blend and provides coaching, training, and content for culturally-minded people
