S3 E4: Transforming Youth Education with Empathy and Excellence with Krista Purnell

27 Feb 2024

Description

Be open and stay curious. It may lead you to new opportunities that you didn't expect. Looking back at all her chapters in education, Krista Purnell shares how staying open-minded helped her thrive and grow. From a 5th-grade math teacher in New York to now the Director of School & District Success at Gradient Learning, Krista has been devoted to education and social impact for over 18 years. The secret to her impactful leadership has been the balance of empathy and excellence. A delicate balance of two key leadership skills that she led as she learned how to empower and inspire youth while managing stress, burnout, and work/life balance while educators continue to be underpaid and overworked. Still, she persists and shows up because she has seen how good education changes people for good. Good karma comes back in her students and the schools she works with and she is eager to see more. You move mountains with others not alone. As we honor Black History Month this February, we are humbled to share Krista's inspiring journey into education and leadership. Connect with Krista Parnell on LinkedIn and her organization.
