Howard has returned from the NBOA Annual Meeting in Los Angeles and brings lessons learned from his time with business officers and leaders of independent schools. This year, the presentation focused on three key areas: Leading Change, Decision-Making, and Strategic Communication. The objective, to answer the question: where are you in your career and what do you see your role to be in your school? Are you the finance officer, head, or are you truly a champion for change? Thanks to a rich dialog with questions from group, this was an engaging and inspirational session.
This week on the podcast, we’re taking comments from Twitter during the session and responding directly. Read and follow a few of our Twitter participants below.

Leaders accept denial as normal; they listen & acknowledge. Learning starts at confusion. @HowardTeibel #NBOA2016 pic.twitter.com/xOp8VtlHFI
