Six Brands Every Catholic School Leader Should Study

Six Brands Every Catholic School Leader Should StudyHost: John Mihalyo Every day, families walk through your doors already trained by six companies to expect something incredible, and they don't even realize it.In this episode, John looks at Apple, Amazon, Nike, Southwest, Disney, and Chick-fil-A, six brands that have earned a level of trust and loyalty most organizations only dream of, and asks the question every Catholic school leader should be asking: what would it look like if we did the same thing our way, rooted in our mission and our faith?From Apple's gift for building anticipation to Amazon's obsession with removing friction, from Nike's unmistakable identity to Southwest's 47 years of profitability built on culture, from Disney's intentional design of every single detail to Chick-fil-A's hospitality that never apologizes for what it stands for, each company has something to teach us. John breaks down what each one does well and what the Catholic school version of that could actually look like in your building this year.The bigger point, though, is that recruitment and culture were never just one person's job. Your front desk, your cleaning team, your teachers at pickup, all of them are shaping the experience a family remembers. John leaves you with one challenge: pick the thing from this episode that made you a little uncomfortable, and change it this month.LINKS AND RESOURCESConnect with John Mihalyo!If you want help turning any of these ideas into something real for your school, reach out at elementaryadvancement.comIf this episode got you thinking, send it to another Catholic school leader who could use a fresh way of looking at their building this week.
