Mithun recently hosted educators from around the country at Pier 56 for a boot camp led by Leadership + Design, a collaborative of educators, strategists, and experience designers committed to transforming the work of school leaders through intentionally designed experiences. Part of the boot camp was a brain-storming exercise led by @synapsepd. We entered this week with new inspiration from our time spent with progressive thinkers in the realms of design, creativity, and supportive workplaces for healthy collaboration.
