## Leading with Critical Conscientiousness in Mind: A Strategy for Leaders to Navigate through Difficult Times Aired Live: November 29, 2022

Presented by:  
Dr. Shawn Joseph, has served in numerous positions in education, including educator, school and district administrator, and superintendent. He is currently co-director of the AASA/Howard Urban Superintendent Academy and Assistant Professor of Educational Leadership, Administration, and Policy Studies at Howard University. A published author, his most recent book is *Finding the Joseph Within.*

Dr. Joseph presents three key life lessons as a pathway to achieving better outcomes for staff and students. These include: 

- Challenges are meant to be in your life. Use them as learning opportunities to gain wisdom and help you grow as an educator and leader.
- Be intentional about building relationships. You never know who will help you.
- If you focus on your mission, you will always have a job. If you focus on your job, you may miss your mission.

Gain a greater understanding of the power of critical conscientiousness and how mindsets can help one live a more purposeful life.
