Feeling Stuck: An Interview with Dr. John Vasquez

This episode features my first guest ever, Dr. John Vasquez. John has worked in many areas related to student success, including multicultural affairs, LGBTQIA+ programs, counseling services, mentoring, and academic advising. He's also worked at a variety of institution types over the course of his career. In this episode, John shares how "feeling stuck" motivated him to register for the Supervisor Strengths Institute last summer. If you're feeling stuck or are just wondering whether the Institute would be a good fit for you, John and I talk about his experiences in the Institute, his struggles as a supervisor, and his thoughts about what folks need to do to change the culture of Higher Ed.  

When supervisors aren't being effective, teams aren't being effective. Unfortunately, most supervisors don't get the training and support they need to be successful. That's why we created the Supervisor Strengths Institute.

Join us for the Fall 2025 Cohort starting on Thursday, September 25th!

You'll get eight weeks of powerful online content, designed to help you better understand yourself, your talents, and how to better manage your team. This program combines online learning with weekly cohort calls to discuss the content. Plus, you get one individual coaching call to let you focus on the things that matter to you the most.
