“Few people get the opportunity to directly report to a strong leader, people manager, and mentor--but I did with Lakeisha. As a Community Chair, I had the great privilege of supporting Lakeisha's efforts to reimagine the way new teachers are developed; under her leadership, I found myself in awe of her ability to not just oversee my team and our outcomes, but I found myself inspired with the way she actually aligned with my specific passions and areas for growth while pushing me to be better. Week after week my team's results were at or above national average. Her approach to management is rooted in the intersection between transparency, care and accountability--an approach that will stay with me many years after our initial collaboration. Lakeisha is a brilliant, dynamic and thoughtful leader who leads with authenticity, honesty and hope.”
