School Business Insider Different Paths, Shared Lessons: Early Leadership as a School Business Official
Every school business official remembers their first few years — the learning curve, the pressure, and the moments that shape who they become as leaders.
In this episode of School Business Insider, host John Brucato is joined by John Fink of Cornwall Central School District and Chris Carballo of Highland Falls–Fort Montgomery CSD — two relatively new SBOs who came to the role from very different professional paths.
They reflect on mentorship, work–family balance, business office culture, collegial relationships, and the difference between planned change and the unexpected challenges that define early leadership in school business.
It’s an honest, reflective conversation for anyone navigating — or considering — the SBO role.
