Here’s a leadership question that sounds simple…but isn’t:
How consistent is consistent enough?
And when does it start getting in the way?
Chris and I dig into one of leadership’s quieter paradoxes: the pull to be steady and responsive at the same time. We talk about why consistency matters: trust, clarity, accountability all depend on it. And we name the shadow side too: when consistency turns into rigid sameness, it can actually work against the very people we’re trying to support.
Chris makes a compelling case for predictability, especially in complex systems where people need clear expectations to do good work. I come at it from a coaching lens: values should be consistent, yes, but approaches often need to flex. That flexibility can reduce decision fatigue and help leaders meet teachers where they actually are, not where we wish they’d be.
We also take a hard look at coaching protocols and structures.
When do they support growth?
And when do they quietly replace thinking, judgment, and real connection?
The invitation in this episode is simple but not easy: use tools wisely, stay anchored in your values, and don’t outsource your leadership to a checklist.
If you’ve ever wrestled with how to lead with both decisiveness and responsiveness, this conversation will meet you right in the middle.
