In this episode, Christian Manley, Principal of the Battle Creek STEM Innovation Center, helps us dive into Covey’s reminder that “you can do something about this.” Trust isn’t out of our control—it begins with self-trust rooted in both character and competence. Christian shares her journey as a teacher and leader, offering powerful examples of stewardship, empowerment, and creating a culture where teachers feel trusted to lead learning. She reflects on how high-trust leadership reduces costs, speeds up progress, and frees principals from micromanaging while building ownership among staff. Her stories bring Covey’s principle to life, showing that trust is not just a value but a skill leaders can model and grow in themselves and others.
