The veteran educator, educational consultant, and researcher sat down to discuss his life, his career, and his professional philosophy.
SHOKAN, NY / ACCESSWIRE / February 27, 2023 / It is with great enthusiasm that Michael Troeger, longtime educator, expert educational consultant, and acclaimed educational researcher based out of New York State, announces that he is the subject of a new, in-depth interview. The interview, which was conducted by freelance journalist Stefan Junge on behalf of an online periodical aimed at entrepreneurs and businesspeople, was published on February 9, 2023.
At the start of the piece, Michael is asked to give a brief description of the career path that eventually led him to create and oversee his own educational consulting firm. "Early in my career, I was a project coordinator for Senator Cook. He was a man who was deeply concerned about the state of public education in New York. It was my role to take a detailed look at the overall system, evaluate its strengths and flaws, and make actionable recommendations backed up by extensive research. From the start, I gleaned insights into a broken educational system, one composed of throwaway students. I was moved by compassion, and began to advocate for these students, and did so through a lens of systemic change. Subsequently, I was named one of the first transition coordinators in New York State, and I began working with students with disabilities, helping them plan for a life beyond their schooling-essentially instilling hope. My efforts in this area were recognized by the New York State Education Department. After that, I transitioned into an educational consulting position. I created a business that works directly with the New York State Education Department, which I eventually incorporated and have run as the chief executive."
Further along in the interview, Michael Troeger addresses a question about how he brings his ideas from the conceptual stage into reality, saying, "I make a great effort to establish an environment that encourages creativity, respect, trust, and a free exchange of ideas among my staff. Relationships are the number one variable for educators-especially as they relate to their supervisors. Knowing this, both from my published research and my real-world experience, I endeavor to create a positive culture where people know they are valued and know that their ideas will be heard and considered, the antithesis of toxic workplaces."
