Creating my life's work. A mother's journey to creating an educational expression for her children. Tuesday, August 23, 2011. Be a builder or be a leader? I have been thinking a lot about what it means to lead Summa Institute. What does it mean to be an Exeuctive Director? What am I trying to do? What do I want to inspire and how do I do that?
