Dr. Joe Davis - In Ferguson and beyond, math is the ticket.
In this episode of An Imperfect Leader: Leadership in (After) Action, my guest is the Superintendent from Ferguson-Florissant, Dr. Joe Davis. In our conversation, we talk about programming for #STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math). We talk about #faith. We talk about how leaders monitor progress, and make midcourse course corrections, when needed. You can't talk with Joe Davis and not talk about his greatest passion - mathematics. Give a listen as he deconstructs a decision he made to train teachers to be the best #math teachers.
