385 Rethinking Education with Agile Mindsets with Simon Holzapfel and Jeff Burstein

In this episode of the Disrupt Education Podcast, Peter Hostrawser and Alli Dahl dive into a bold conversation with Simon and Jeff, the minds behind the Learning Educational Agile Framework (LEAF). From Jeff’s dramatic exit from a traditional master’s program to Simon’s deep roots as a teacher and head of school, this episode explores how Agile thinking can revolutionize education. Alli brings real-time insight from guest teaching across schools, spotlighting how leadership and mindset—not just tech—drive real change. The group unpacks the difference between factory-model education and knowledge work, showing how sticky notes and team-based learning can outperform expensive systems. It’s a passionate, practical look at disrupting education from the inside out with human-centered, student-focused design. Whether you're an educator, leader, or lifelong learner, this episode will challenge your assumptions and leave you inspired to lead differently.
