We talk to Mosinee School Board President Paul Nievinski on leadership challenges and triumphs. Transitioning from coach to board president, Nievinski shares his journey from the sidelines to leading a diverse board. He emphasizes fiscal responsibility, civil discourse, and community engagement, championing initiatives like a $19.75 million referendum to improve school facilities. Despite past failures, this one passed with 65% approval. Nievinski advocates for transparency and listening to constituents, tackling funding issues and urging collaboration over conflict.
