Classlist CX Podcast
Welcome to our Community Experts
Welcome to our CX podcast series. Where our aim is to inspire and guide you with insight and advice from our community of experts.
In this series we share best practice from successful school community leaders. And what they all seem to have in common is that they are motivated to make a difference. Nevertheless, there are many skills they develop that are transferrable to the world of work. So a number of our experts discuss possible careers opportunities beyond the school gate.
Last but not least, we hear from leading speakers from the wider world of community.
If you have anyone you think we should include in this series, any community experts that inspire you, please contact us support@classlist.com. We’d love to hear from you.
Susan and Clare, Classlist Founders
