Profiles in Leadership: Shay Adams

To exemplify great leadership in public education, TASBO documented the journey of four volunteer leaders in the video series “Profiles in Leadership.” Shay Adams, Darrell Dodds, Jennifer Land, and Michele Trongaard were all honored at the 2024 TASBO Engage Conference, where the video series debuted. This week's video focuses on Little Elm ISD Assistant Superintendent for Business & Finance Shay Adams, RTSBA, MBA.

After spending 10 years in corporate accounting, Shay began her career in education as a Business Manager in 1998. She has since served as Chief Financial Officer and Assistant Superintendent in New Diana ISD, Lovejoy ISD & Little Elm ISD. Shay is passionate about peer networking opportunities and sharing best practices. She has been active in TASBO affiliates and communities for most of her career, most recently serving as President of the DFW TASBO affiliate.

“Shay’s a leader, outstanding communicator, and enthusiastic supporter of TASBO,” said TASBO Executive Director Tracy Ginsburg. "We are honored to celebrate her and three other of our leaders in this video series.”
