Dr. Donna Vallese: The Revolutionary Leader Challenging Education's Status Quo

In this Career Coaching Secrets episode, host Rexhen interviews Dr. Donna Vallese, an executive coach, education leader, and the founder of Inspiring Leaders LLC. With over two decades of experience, Donna is on a mission to transform education by empowering leaders to challenge antiquated systems and create more meaningful learning environments.Her coaching focuses on "rebel rousers" within education—principals, superintendents, and consultants—who want to push the status quo. She uses the Energy Leadership Index (ELI) assessment to help clients understand their behavioral patterns and works with a data-driven platform to track goal progress.Initially, Donna's marketing efforts on social media had a low return. Her most successful strategies have been networking on LinkedIn, attending conferences, and winning RFPs (Requests for Proposals) to become an approved vendor for school districts. She has ambitious goals to expand her impact with projects like the Educational Luminaries conference and Epic Education, an initiative to develop alternative teacher training pathways.Her biggest challenge is the underfunding of education, which limits the resources schools have for external support. Donna's core advice to other coaches is to tackle the "root of the problem" rather than just applying temporary fixes, helping clients see that true change is possible despite the difficulty.Connect with Dr. Donna Vallese:Website: https://www.inspiringleadersnetwork.com/group-invitation-ilfLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/donnavalleseEmail: [email protected] the showYou can also watch this podcast on YouTube at:https://www.youtube.com/@CareerCoachingSecretsIf you are a career coach looking to grow your business you can find out more about Purple Circle at http://joinpurplecircle.com Get Exclusive Access to Our In-Depth Analysis of 71 Successful Career Coaches, Learn exactly what worked (and what didn't) in the career coaching industry in 2024: https://joinpurplecircle.com/white-paper-replay
