SHOW NOTES

Ryan sits down with Christine Choi, a founding member of Teach for America, former Head of Communications for Virgin Galactic, and current partner at M13.

Christine is a life-long learner with vast experience across an array of startups and global brands. She offers lessons on how to build teams, manage crises and make big moves – all while staying humble, kind and community-focused.

How do we get better, faster? A group of pathbreaking educators come together weekly to answer that question, applying lessons from the classroom to all areas of life — from parenting, to relationships, to sports, to hobbies and more.

Sweat the Technique is hosted by four former principals and superintendents who’ve led gap-closing schools. That includes: Doug Lemov, author of the international bestseller Teach Like a Champion and trainer to many successful educators and professional sports coaches, Ryan Hill, founder and CEO of a network of 23 KIPP public charter schools in New Jersey and Miami, Stacey Shells Harvey, founder and CEO of ReGeneration Schools, and Ravi Gupta, former leader of Tennessee’s highest performing network of charter schools and founder of the largest-ever training organization for Democratic candidates and staffers.
