Keynote Address
Dr. Zac Bauermaster
"It's All About People"
Education is all about people. Period. Whether you're an administrator, teacher, or support staff member, you’re a leader, and the heart of what we do in schools lies in connecting with and supporting others. However, it can be easy to get caught up in the daily grind, to-do lists, and the hustle and bustle of life, missing out on what is most important—the people. It’s the people who make a place special. Join Zac as he shares a personal experience that opened his eyes to the importance of prioritizing relationships and how all school staff, regardless of their role, have the power to shape a positive culture. In his keynote, Zac will introduce and break down his PEOPLE Framework for leadership: Prioritize, Empathize, Observe, Purpose, Love, and Encourage. This practical and heartfelt framework is designed to help administrators, teachers, and support staff strengthen connections with one another, students, and families. By embracing the PEOPLE Framework, you’ll transform how you approach each day, creating a school community where students want to come, staff want to work, and families trust and are proud to send their kids.
