ThinkTech Interview with HOS Ryan Masa

Rusty Komori and Ryan Masa

Last week motivational speaker, author, tv host, leadership consultant and tennis professional Rusty Komori visited out High School campus to deliver his leadership books, a thoughtful and generous donation by Trustee Simon Treacy and Moko Treacy, to our #GreatMinds.

Today, Rusty invited Head of School Ryan Masa to join him for a talk-story session on leadership and how Assets provides learning opportunities to children who learn differently.

This informative and charismatic interview shares a glimpse into the life of our Head of School, how he came to Assets, how Assets stays true to our mission, how our teachers are prepared for success in the classroom, how our students benefit from different learning styles and discover their talents, and what it means to be a leader. https://youtu.be/QTAecX1Q_eQ
