In this episode of Coaching Conversations, I sit down with two incredible educational leaders, Art Costa and Bob Garmston. Our discussion delves into the deep connections between cognition, emotion, and action in learning—something I’ve always believed is essential for meaningful growth.Art shares his insights on fostering resilience in students, while Bob emphasizes the importance of agency and collective efficacy in shaping strong learning communities. This episode is especially meaningful as we celebrate Art and Bob as recipients of the Don Deshler Leadership Award, recognizing their incredible contributions to education. At its core, our conversation reinforces the urgent need for holistic student development and learning spaces where everyone—students, teachers, and leaders—can thrive.Thank you for being a part of our community.
