Leading with Purpose with Mark Jacobson

from Edumacation Hosted by David Nash and L Nash

The most effective teachers know that leadership skills are essential to educators, and character is essential to leadership. In this episode, adjunct professor and retired Lieutenant Commander Mark Jacobson helps David and L kick into high gear as the fall semester winds down and finals loom on the horizon. Mark compares his time at summer camp to his time at boot camp, navigates military and civilian hierarchies on Capitol Hill, and models to both his students and his son what it truly means to lead. Did you miss our bonus episode with Mark about the outsider experience at Kweebec? It's on the syllabus, so be sure to go back and check it out! Thanks to artist Mr Smith and the Free Music Archive for the use of our theme song, "Funk Five."
