Helping Every Student Find Their Path to Success - November23 Highlights from the #InnovatorsMindset

George Couros kicks off this last highlight video of 2023 with a reminder about the great messages the guests bring to this podcast! Couros begins with a reflection on a book that he is currently reading and shares a struggle he has with the idea of mastery. People can have mastery over a field or with an aspect of their lives, but part of finding mastery is finding something that you are really passionate about and happen to also be very good at. Couros reminds us that it is important to help every kid find their own pathway to success.
