From Exhaustion to Influence — Reclaim the focus, energy, and presence to lead with impact and longevity.
From Exhaustion to Influence
The Professional Wellness session equips school and system leaders to restore capacity, focus, and energy by redefining what it means to lead well. Grounded in research from the Professional Wellness Program and fieldwork across 20 countries, it provides a practical framework for sustaining impact without burning out.
Every leader knows the feeling — endless demands, shrinking time, and the slow erosion of joy in the work. This session helps leaders step out of survival mode and rebuild the confidence and presence to lead with clarity and calm authority.
Leaders learn how to reverse the six missteps that quietly drain performance — from Glorifying Overwork to Directionless Decision Making — and replace them with rhythm, alignment, and trust that spread through the culture.
“Exhaustion isn’t evidence of commitment — it’s the erosion of it.”
