"A journey of self-discovery, noting the need for cultivating and developing one's strengths, social responsibility, communication skills, and desire for lifelong learning. Ravi's Pivot makes for a compelling read with tips for fostering these strengths in youth today."
- Mary Beth Pelosky, K-12 Principal & Global Ed. Specialist
"A book for parents, students, and educators that also works as a high school and college resource. Students will love the stories that connect music with positive change. Pivot is a fast and easy read to inspire educators and help parents positively encourage their kids."
- Philip Levine, K-12 teacher & Parent
"Author Ravi Hutheesing has written a timely, essential book, Pivot, that emphasizes 'cultural competence is the pathway to equity, equity is the pathway to equality, and equality is the pathway to world peace.'"
- Terry Spradlin, School Boards Association Executive Director
"We don't offer children enough opportunities to explore, experience, struggle, and fail-a natural process of learning that helps develop curiosity, self-confidence, grit, and a sense of accomplishment. Pivot has many practical uses for parents and educators, and also thoughtful insights on how to champion student success."
- Paul Blanford, K-12 School Superintendent
"A particularly good book for educators, including those involved with curriculum and strategic planning of schools. I would also like my own children to read it. It's a good example of what a successful life in 2020 looks like-today's world is rarely picking one profession and sticking with it for life."
- Robert Moje, Educational Planner & Architect
"As a K-12 educational leader, I found Pivot very helpful as we continue to build a system that addresses the whole child with a focus on equity and cultural competence. As a parent, I found Pivot a worthwhile read to further encourage me to foster curiosity and independence in my three daughters. As a fan of human achievement and nimble pursuit of dreams, Ravi's personal story is fascinating at the least and inspiring at its best." - Bob Tess, School District Chief Finance & Business Services Officer
