This book reveals the journey to an optimistic, productive mindset that works in classrooms and businesses, and is intentional, seeking to bring out the best in others so that classrooms can be their collaborative finest at all levels. With 21 contributors, each chapter blends a unique leadership trait with classroom wisdom to benefit both spheres.
Could a mindset that works for a former NFL player work for a teacher? How could the CEO of a successful snack food company inspire a teacher? If the dedication of a teacher works for students, can it work for a city-based construction company?
Discover the seemingly unparalleled connections between classrooms and Greater Philadelphia businesses! Leaders in both arenas find common ground and identify the approaches that best serve the game plan of success.
In this unique collection of classroom-business mindsets for personal growth, relational growth, and service growth, you will be powerfully encouraged to maximize who you are so you can be and give your best to others. Teachers improving classrooms and influencing students; business leaders stimulating companies and motivating employees . . . with the same strategies and the same perspectives! The two realms have finally merged in a book that will ignite your heart to live with fire, passion, and purpose. As if there is any other way!

Joy Rosser has been an educator in southeast Pennsylvania for almost 25 years while simultaneously pursuing her passion for education through writing and research. Tony Barber is the Superintendent of a mid-sized, suburban school district right outside of Philadelphia, PA.  He is also a college professor, teaching classes in the principalship, the superintendency, and Educational Law.
