The Prospector's Pickaxe - Mining Human Potential

Education EN ↓ 30 episodes

A prospector is a person who digs for minerals of value . A prospector often uses a pickaxe, a tool that is used to break apart rock to find the valuable minerals inside. This podcast is about doing just that, as a leader and a person, mining for human potential. As a high school principal, I do this everyday. As educators, we all do this everyday. We will discuss books on leadership, inspirational stories, educational issues, and together discover how to mine our own human potential.
