uLead Podcast

In this episode, we bring you a breakout session from uLead 2024 called You Don’t Need a Title to be a Leader. You’ll hear Shan Jorgenson-Adam and Dr. Rita Marler speak about how Educational Leadership is different from non-educational leadership roles because student success is at the core. They ask participants to "reimagine" their leadership skills/abilities and support them in identifying and cultivating these skills in others with the ultimate purpose of ensuring success for all students.

Shan Jorgenson-Adam has been an educator for over 30 years working in a variety of educational roles (teacher, school administrator, division principal, director assistant and deputy superintendent) in both British Columbia and Alberta.

Dr. Rita Marler has worked in K - 12 public education for over 30 years in central Alberta. Rita's passion is Instructional Leadership and her doctoral work focused on the instructional leadership role of the Assistant Principal. As superintendent for 9 years, Rita's visionary leadership and relational approach paved the way for a collaborative culture that created connections amongst administrators and schools across her school division.
