Episode 136: 4 More Powerful Leadership Lessons From Atomic Habits

Back in October of 2023, I recorded Episode 53 of this podcast: “5 Powerful Leadership Lessons From Atomic Habits”. Since then, that episode has become one of the most downloaded episodes in the history of the podcast.

The popularity of that episode has nothing to do with me and everything to do with James Clear’s amazing book. Atomic Habits is the best-selling non-fiction book of all time with over 20 million copies sold and it has been translated into over 60 languages.

Not only is this book the definitive guide for building better habits through small, consistent changes, it also contains many important strategies for private school leaders.

So, on today’s episode of The Private School Leader Podcast, we are going to discuss 4 More Powerful Leadership Lessons From Atomic Habits.

Thank you for taking me along with you when you are walking the dog, driving to school or running errands. I appreciate you and what you are doing for the lucky kids and teachers at your school. Thanks so much for listening and thanks for making a difference
