Description

Terrel H. Bell award winner for outstanding leadership, Principal Catherine Bricelj, talks with us about how to nurture a positive environment and how to lead with empathy, humility, and compassion both at work and at home. 

Not only does she share some of her best practices that make her the leader that she is, but she shares so many ways that any organization can create a more positive and inclusive environment for everyone involved. It's an episode you don't want to miss!

Her transformational leadership has taken her school, Myrtle Place in Lafayette, LA, from a C school to an A school, making it a National Blue Ribbon School. She did this by leading with her heart, collaborating and seeking feedback from all stakeholders, and creating a safe and uplifting space where her teachers and students can thrive. The philosophy she leads by is to meet the children where they are and what leadership is to her is just love.
