Your approach to the day can’t be controlled by a saying you have on a coffee cup or a quote on Twitter.
Those things may get you to think but if you’re waiting for that to help you get through your day then you’re not going to have an effective or impactful day.
Your day and your leadership is a result of a consistent practice of your beliefs, ideals, and the integrity with which you do them.
Have confidence in your abilities and know that you are in the position of leadership you are in because somebody has trusted you to do your job and there are people counting on you to do it.
Be confident, but not prideful or boastful, in your abilities and lead people because of who you are and the talents that you have. Not because a coffee cup saying told you that you were ready for the day.
Meet Todd Gordon, a seasoned educator, coach, and activities administrator who dedicated an impressive 37 years to shaping the lives of students within the realm of education. His career has taken him on a remarkable journey through nine different school districts, ranging from the intimate setting of a small school to the dynamic landscape of a large, multi-high school urban district – truly everything in between.
In 2022, Todd embarked on a new chapter, retiring from his illustrious career in education. However, retirement did not signal an end to his passion for making a positive impact in the realm of sports and activities. Todd joined BOUND, a leading sports software company, where he continues to contribute his wealth of experience and knowledge to support activity administrators and coaches.
Beyond the professional arena, Todd’s personal life is a testament to dedication and enduring love. Married to his wife, Deb, for an impressive 40 years, they have navigated life’s journey together. Their family has grown to include three married children, each on their unique paths, and six delightful grandchildren who bring joy and laughter to their lives.
Todd authored and published his first book, “The Power of One. One Word Leadership”, in 2022.
His newest project is the “The Pursuit”, and it starts with new writings on a new page on this website. Todd delves into the essence of your daily pursuit of excellence, offering insights on growth, resilience, and the power of redemption. By weaving daily Scripture insights into our exploration, we bridge the timeless with the contemporary, inviting you to reflect on leadership principles grounded in spiritual wisdom.
