Linda Cliatt-Wayman is best known for her 2015 TED Talk, “How to Fix a Broken School” in which she shared the story of how she led the transformation of a Philadelphia high school. In this episode, Elena uncovered how Principal Wayman became the seemingly fearless force of a leader that she appears to be, who her primary influences were, and how she’s navigated changes she couldn’t control. 

This episode is for you if: 

  • You craving inspiration to be an anti-racist leader for equity. 
  • You need a reminder that courage is hard. And leading doesn’t always (or often) feel good.
  • You want a new role model.
