Have you, as a leader, continuously focused on your weaknesses instead of your strengths? My guest today found hardship early in his career, but instead of focusing on his struggles, he built a system that changed his career. Today’s guest is Chad Ostrowski and he focused on his strengths to create the Grid Method, which was the starting point of the Teach Better Team.
In this Episode, we discuss:
- Thriving in your Areas of Strengths
- The Teach Better Construction
- Focusing on Solutions Instead of the Problems
- Professional Development though Conferences, Facebook, and Twitter
- And Upcoming Projects

Go Community!
Better Leaders Better Schools
This community is one of my favorite one-stop-shop tools to engage with other amazing school leaders. I use this online resource to gain insight, gather resources, and develop my leadership capacity.
The #1 Leadership Online community is generous and authentic, an antidote to the clutter and noise that other social media sites have become.
What makes this community different is that it is:
- An investment, not free
- A private community with the same goal
- A conversation, not a variety of self-promoting presentations
- Evergreen, not ephemeral
- Focused on serving school leaders, not advertisers, companies, or investors
I highly recommend using Go! Community to enhance your leadership skills!
