    Great reflective coach
    Thanks for the WWPN 2023 shout out in your December episode Will! Will helps leaders reflect on their practice. He also walks the walk and regularly practices his own reflection. I appreciate how he guides our admin team through reflection so that we build stronger connection which leads to us better serving our staff and students. Wishing Will and his team a wonderful 2024. I look forward to continuing to learn and grow with you.

    So encouraging
    It can be really hard to find conversations that are both encouraging and truly helpful in a practical way. Thanks for investing so much in giving your audience something that is really useful. Keep it up!

    Be Inspired!
    Principal Matters has been my go-to resource for a full year. Will and his guests support and encourage both the veteran and novice instructional leader. Topics are relevant to what we as principals face on the daily. Will leads with true servant leadership with a pure vision to lift up and help those who serve in the education field. Subscribe, don’t miss, and be inspired!

    Amazing and Valuable!!
    I’ve been listening to Will’s podcast for going on three years and he and his guests speak directly to school leaders in a way that is relevant and rejuvenating. He knows the job we have and provides materials and resources from the veterans perspective! Point blank listened to Principal Matters and acting on what you’ve heard will make you a better school building leader!!

    Too much Christian nonsense for a principal podcast
    I started out enjoying this podcast but then it took a hard turn into “spirituality” aka being a Christian. It lost me there. The podcast became super preachy irrelevant to school leadership—especially public schools. School leadership done well doesn't need reliance on a higher power.

    Chalk Full of Information
    I have listened to Mr. Parker’s podcast for over a year now. It’s has helped me grow as a leader. It has even influenced my own podcast (“Educate to Elevate” available on apple podcasts or SoundCloud) and provided a guide as to how I can grow and help others. Furthermore, I have even reached out to Mr. Parker for advice and he has been more than willing to help. So if you are interested in school leadership, this podcast, and host, is something you want to subscribe to ASAP. Dr. Matt Body

    A must listen!
    This podcast is a treasure trove of information for school leaders. Will does an excellent job of delivering the content in a way that keeps you engaged and yearning for more. Not only does he teach good practices for educators but he does it in a way that is inspirational! He’s the best in the business of developing school leaders and just as genuine and passionate in real life as he is on the podcast!

    Great content!
    I just started listening to this podcast, and every episode so far I seem to get a little bite-sized chunk of great information that I can carry with me as a teacher. Also, those interested in a leadership role above the leadership role of being a teacher, I recommend this podcast for practical leadership content. Great Job!

    First Review of PMP!
    I'll be the first to say hurrah! I don't know what the future holds for PM but the first episode was a lot of fun to create! Bring on the reviews!!

    Best podcast for school leaders.
    As he has done on the blog and in the book, Will Parker provides consistent, encouraging, and very practical advice for educational leaders in this great new podcast. Each episode is just long enough to present its message directly, without unnecessary fluff, and Will's pleasant voice and engaging presentation make it a great pleasure to listen to. Highly recommended.
