Unscripted Leadership: Stories of Adaptability, Courage, and Impact

Originating from the creative vision of Claubentz Dieujuste, eight educational leaders from across the globe committed to developing a text that would provide readers with practical, innovative insight on navigating challenges and emerging stronger than ever before.

I am so grateful to be one of the eight contributing authors to Mac Media & Publishing’s latest release, ‘Unscripted Leadership: Stories of Adaptability, Courage, and Impact.’ This anthology is now available for purchase and yours truly is so excited to engage in a few book signing events in the coming months. In the waiting, I invite you to purchase a copy to read during the summer and gain the inspiration to lead courageously during the 2026-2027 school year.
