We were talking about leadership in class: the different types, most effective types in different situations, our own personal type, and the kind of leader we want to be in a classroom or district. I interviewed Bernie Van Tilberg, my amazingly successful younger sister's high school teacher that sparked her interest in her field. Leah is a production manager for a large television corporation in Los Angeles at the age of 22! BVT taught her the initial skills to work well in teams and be a good leader in such projects. He is the founder of the Media Technology program at a vocational alternative high school where we grew up. The best piece of advice that I got from BVT was learning to delegate tasks. Delegate, train, then supervise. Anyway, I had to make a video about what I learned. And I decided to write a children's book for it. My other sister, Noelle (the youngest) illustrated it. She was a published illustrator at the age of 8, so I knew she was right for the job. Well, here's my book!
