To the Beat Of Leadership: A Story of High and Low Notes

Dr. Mervin Jenkins—hip-hop artist, educator, husband, and father—takes readers on a journey in leadership unlike any other. It is a story of a reluctant learner/leader and how his lived experiences, sometimes referenced as “sword in the stone” moments, have contributed to his life’s purpose. His life transformation from average to spectacular did not come without its share of crucial and heartfelt moments. Dr. Jenkins took a pair of things that many said could never coexist, hip-hop and “traditional” education, and made the melding of the two his life’s work.InTo the Beat of Leadership: A Story of High and Low Notes, Dr. Jenkins takes readers on a trip down memory lane. From his time growing up as a child of hip-hop and sci-fi/fantasy culture while living in a small town in rural South Carolina, he explores how those experiences helped guide him to and through his professional career in leadership. His storytelling—while both raw and fantastical—is sure to keep you flipping the pages, regardless of whether you are a leader from the old school or new.Read more
