Welcome to Set The P.A.C.E. podcast, where we discuss upcoming trends and best practices for all Postsecondary Career and Technical Education professionals.
In this episode, hosts Brad Kinsinger, Jeff Henderson, Kim Dreaden, and Shawn Peck dive into one of the most important conversations in professional development: the difference between being a manager and being a leader. While managers often focus on processes, tasks, and outcomes, leaders inspire people, build trust, and create a vision others want to follow.
Join the team as they share insights, experiences, and practical examples of how leadership goes beyond a job title. Whether you're leading a department, managing a team, or aspiring to make a greater impact in your organization, this discussion will challenge you to think differently about influence, accountability, and what it truly means to lead.

What is AI Literacy
As artificial intelligence reshapes every industry, employers are signaling a clear expectation: graduates must be AI‑literate. This podcast explores what that really means for post‑secondary education. In this episode, our hosts talk through current AI research, and real‑world use cases—translating fast‑moving developments into practical insights for higher education leaders, faculty, and learners.
Through candid conversations, we examine how institutions can move from reactive experimentation to intentional preparation. How do colleges support students entering an AI‑enabled workforce? How do they upskill faculty who are at vastly different points on the AI learning curve? The goal is not just awareness of AI tools, but thoughtful, responsible integration that prepares both students and educators to thrive in an AI‑driven future.
