Mary Michael Sellers has sat on every side of the classroom door, as a teacher, a professor, and now the President & CEO of Scantron. She speaks on edtech leadership, AI adoption, and what it really takes to lead, in the boardroom and at home.
“I had a student named Bianca. She was visually impaired and required a number of accommodations to have a commensurate education experience. As I moved from the classroom into business, I kept her story as one of my north stars: every chair counts. Every single student counts.”
That idea has never left her. It's why, years later, she led a professional learning team at Learning Ally focused on literacy, dyslexia, and visual impairment, and why it now shapes how she leads a company: every employee in the chair, every customer in the chair, matters.
How to lead through change in education and edtech, and what it actually takes to lead a company as a single mother of four.
