The Challenge
Our client was a widely regarded school superintendent from a mid-sized district and a long-shot candidate for the top schools jobs in one of the country’s largest education departments. Their interview was two weeks away. High-profile detractors with national influence were gearing up to fight their selection. The client needed high-level and rapid-fire coaching to keep out of the weeds and focused on their message
The Solution
Half Street Group quickly tailored a coaching and training curriculum and developed a clearcut leadership profile and natural narrative arc. Across a series of one-on-one training sessions, we coached our client to use stories of student success and examples of impactful collaboration with their detractors’ allies to inoculate against ideological criticism and false narratives.
