Episode 166: The Top 10 Leadership Nuggets Of 2025
If you have listened to even a few episodes of this podcast, you know that I like lists. It might be “The 4 Strategies To…” or “The 5 Secrets Of…”, but I love to organize my thoughts into lists.
I especially love “Year-End Top 10 Lists”, like: the top 10 movies of the year or the top 10 books or TV shows of the year. With that in mind, I have looked back over the last 52 episodes and pulled out what I think are the best leadership strategies, quotes or phrases.
On today’s episode of The Private School Leader Podcast, we are going to count down The Top 10 Leadership Nuggets Of 2025!
Thank you for listening to the podcast every week. You are making a difference in the lives of the students, teachers and parents at your school. I know that what you do is difficult, exhausting and lonely. Your hard work inspires me to keep making weekly content to try to encourage and inspire you as you serve your school.
Thanks for all you do,
Mark Minkus

Being a private school leader is a VERY difficult job. You have to make hundreds of decisions every day, and you have to keep everyone safe, increase enrollment, keep the parents happy, keep the board happy, motivate the teachers, deal with student discipline, beat last year’s test scores and come in under budget.
That can lead to you feeling tired, discouraged and stressed out. I’ve been there. That’s why I created THRIVE Academy
