Are you still working tirelessly for student outcomes that don’t reflect your effort? It’s time to move beyond compliance and redefine leadership with purpose!

From February 6-8, 2025, aPODERar will gather education leaders in Burlingame, CA, for a symposium built on culture, community, and resilience. Among the highlights is an electrifying session led by our very own Dr. Robin Avelar La Salle, President and Founder of Orenda Education. Her topic, “Equity Leadership Beyond Compliance,” dives deep into tackling the challenges of equitable leadership with strategies rooted in cognitive and social psychology. Expect to think critically, laugh loudly, and maybe even tear up as Dr. Avelar La Salle connects the dots between leadership practices and meaningful student outcomes.

This is more than a presentation—it’s a call to action. Learn how to sharpen your data analysis skills, assess popular initiatives for real impact, and adopt effective leadership practices that turn struggles into successes. Whether you’re a district leader or an equity warrior, this session promises to leave you inspired, empowered, and ready to lead with authenticity.

Let’s pack the room and ignite change together! Secure your spot now to join this must-attend session.
