Hi, I’m Dr. Bobbie Mills
And I help assistant principals develop the mindset, skill set, and leadership presence needed to become confident, principal-ready leaders who can lead schools with clarity, impact, and purpose.
Throughout my career, I’ve supported many assistant principals, principals, and district leaders as they work to strengthen their leadership mindset and grow in cultural, strategic, and instructional leadership. I bridge the gap between doing the job and being ready for the role by helping assistant principals think, lead, and operate at the principal level—so their daily actions align with the responsibilities and expectations of principalship.
I believe leadership is not about waiting for permission—it’s about preparation, visibility, and impact. When leaders learn how to lead with intention, align their voice with vision, and use data and culture as levers for change, doors begin to open.
When I’m not coaching leaders or building pathways to principalship, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, traveling, being exposed to new things in life, and creating spaces where educators can grow into the leaders they were always meant to be.

Dr. Mills didn't just offer advice; she provided a lifeline. She met me where I was, acknowledging how I was feeling, and helped me build a bridge from reactive management to proactive leadership.

Dr. Mills didn't just offer advice; she provided a lifeline. She met me where I was, acknowledging how I was feeling, and helped me build a bridge from reactive management to proactive leadership. Instead of just telling me what to do, Dr. Mills helped me see how my daily actions, like a brief classroom walkthrough or a difficult conversation with a staff member were opportunities to drive instructional growth. She helped me organize my thoughts and my data, turning chaos into clarity. The endless to-do list didn't disappear, but I learned to approach it with a new mindset.Â
With Dr. Mills' guidance, I didn't just check off boxes; I was equipped with a strategy to build relationships that foster real change. I started seeing my work as less about putting out fires and more about igniting a passion for learning in my school. Dr. Mills provided the tools, the encouragement, and the unwavering belief that I had the potential to be a powerful and compassionate instructional leader.
