What happens to your math improvement efforts when you leave the role?

Many school and district leaders assume that lack of time or teacher buy-in is the biggest barrier to sustainable change. But the real threat? Fragility—the risk that everything falls apart when key people leave or switch roles. In this episode, we unpack the often-overlooked issue of leadership transition and how it stalls momentum, erodes trust, and resets years of progress. You’ll hear real-world case studies and actionable strategies for building an infrastructure that outlasts any single leader.

You’ll learn:

  • How to avoid the “spaghetti at the wall” cycle every time leadership changes
  • What distributed leadership really looks like in successful math programs
  • How to create structures that sustain the work—no matter who’s at the helm

Press play to discover how to future-proof your math leadership and build lasting momentum across your district.
