Building A Strong Staff
Thursday, 15 October, 2026
Dr. Josiah Jackson, an educational excellence speaker and author at Jay Limited LLC with 35+ years of experience teaching in public, private, charter, and home school settings, discusses the challenges in the educational system. Dr. Jackson describes ongoing challenges in education including absenteeism, budget deficits, staff and student mental wellbeing, school closures, distance/hybrid learning, and revolving staff, and explains why team cohesion is essential for a successful school year. She highlights the "honeymoon" period at the start of the year and stresses consistent communication, encouragement, balancing strong and struggling staff, and using icebreakers, scenario-based activities, potlucks, and Culture Days to build relationships and celebrate diversity. She also discusses her books Come Get These Kids (written during 2020 school shutdowns) and Show Up With Excellence (focused on respect and dignity).
