The Catholic School Leaders Podcast
Host: John Mihalyo
Guest: Dr. Trevor Timmerberg, Assistant Superintendent, Archdiocese of Louisville
Episode Overview
Being a principal can be a lonely job. In this episode, John and Dr. Trevor Timmerberg unpack how a strong, healthy leadership team helps you lead with clarity, build trust, and move your school forward—without carrying everything on your own.
What You’ll Learn
- Mission-driven vs. maintenance-driven leadership teams
- How to choose the right people (not just the right positions)
- The right team size and meeting length
- How to prevent “meetings after meetings”
- Simple agenda structures that drive action and accountability
- Empowering others to lead (so it’s not all on you)
Key Takeaway
A great leadership team strengthens culture, improves decisions, and keeps your school focused on mission—not just managing the daily fires.
