Trust is the foundation of effective school board leadership — and it’s never static.

In Episode 1 of the Leading for All series, host Dr. Rodney Harrelson is joined by 2026 OSBA President-elect Dr. Micah J. Covert and OSBA Director of Board and Management Services Kristine Robbins to explore what responsible governance looks like in practice for Ohio school board members. This conversation focuses on building trust, communicating clearly and leading with credibility in a role that is often misunderstood by the public.

This four-part Leading for All series was created for Ohio school board members in partnership with Ohio Inclusive Instructional Leadership and Ohio School Boards Association, coordinated by the University of Cincinnati Systems Development & Improvement Center, with support from the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce.
