Robyn Jackson

Dr. Robyn R. Jackson is passionate about building better educators. As the CEO of Mindsteps® Inc. she has helped thousands of k12 administrators and teachers become Master Teachers and High Performing Principals who can help any child and any school be successful.

With over 25 years in the profession, Dr. Jackson is a National Board Certified high school English teacher, an award winning middle school administrator, author, internationally recognized keynote speaker, and highly sought-after consultant in thousands of schools and districts worldwide. Her work has helped teachers and administrators develop rigorous, equitable instructional programs that provide every student with the support and motivation they need to reach or exceed the standards.

A few years ago, Dr. Jackson began to notice that even the most well-meaning, hard-working teachers and administrators struggled to reach their goals for their schools. So, she developed a simple 4-part framework called Buildership® that helps you develop a bold vision, mission, and core values—while using the resources you already have—to create a school where 100% of your students can be successful.

In 2022, Dr. Jackson opened the virtual doors to Buildership® University where she helps K-12 Principals, Superintendents, District Staff and Asst. Principals apply the Buildership® Model to their schools and districts and create alignment, build highfunctioning schools and healthy culture, create consistent and tangible teacher growth each year, and achieve their 100% visions for their students in 3 years or less.

Dr. Jackson is the best-selling author of 13 books, including the award-winning "Never Underestimate Your Teachers" and the international best-seller "Never Work Harder Than Your Students." She also hosts the popular podcast School Leadership Reimagined where each week, she offers free training on how to use Buildership® to build a bigger vision, develop a better process, and achieve a brighter future for your schools.

When she’s not traveling the world, Dr. Jackson enjoys cooking, hiking, gardening, and spending time with her Husband Charles and their Cane Corsos Nola and Massai.
