Well, it's a wrap!
spk_0
Season 4 of the podcast is coming to an end.
spk_0
Just in time for the School CEO Conference.
spk_0
It's actually this week, September 24th and 25th.
spk_0
I hope to see all of you there.
spk_0
In the meantime, thank you so much for letting me learn and share from School CEO's amazing
spk_0
back catalogue of content this season.
spk_0
Together, we've analyzed School Communications Departments, Strengths, Weetnesses, Opportunities
spk_0
and Threats.
spk_0
And we've heard stories from school districts across the country that demonstrate how to
spk_0
turn some of those weaknesses and some of those threats into strengths and opportunities.
spk_0
We've also outlined the most important considerations for creating an effective long-term communication
spk_0
plan.
spk_0
And all along the way, we've shared powerful insights from school CEOs' original research
spk_0
to help you do your best work.
spk_0
I've included links to some of the studies I've referenced throughout the season, including
spk_0
what parents want from school communications and a seat at the table on the working relationship
spk_0
between school communicators and other staff, which also offers some really valuable
spk_0
insights on how school communicators spend their time.
spk_0
We've heard on-core episodes with some of our favorite guests from previous seasons,
spk_0
including some of our school CEO Conference keynote speakers, Derek W. Black and just
spk_0
last episode, William D. Parker.
spk_0
And finally, we talked about why and how you should make streamlined digital two-way communication
spk_0
a part of your strategy for keeping families happy and engaged.
spk_0
Speaking of two-way, we want to hear from you.
spk_0
We did things differently this season, diverging from the one-on-one interviews of past seasons
spk_0
to deliver you bite-sized chunks of our best content.
spk_0
Peppered here and there with on-core episodes from previous seasons.
spk_0
So what do you think?
spk_0
Do you like getting straight to the point with short episodes?
spk_0
Or do you miss those in-depth discussions?
spk_0
Are there any particular topics or people you want to hear more about?
spk_0
Tell us.
spk_0
We want to design our next season with you in mind.
spk_0
Email me at ileen at schoolceo.com
spk_0
Although I'll answer to Ellen or Elaine or Irene and Persian Gmail won't, so just in case
spk_0
you don't know how to spell ileen, there's a link to my email address in the show notes.
spk_0
And if it's easier to remember, you can also send your comments to editor at schoolceo.com.

Finally, if you have a cool story you want to share about your district, and I know
spk_0
you all have a lot of cool stories to share.
spk_0
You can schedule a one-on-one call with me to chat about it.
spk_0
Or just about anything else you're interested in.
spk_0
Any love-as-blind fans out there?

spk_0
like you, so don't be afraid to schedule a call.
spk_0
Tell us a little bit about yourself and your district.
spk_0
Getting to jump on a Zoom call and actually talk to you guys is my favorite part of the
spk_0
job.
spk_0
So I've included a link to my call and leave in the show notes.
