Steve Clarke

With over 27 years of experience in education, I have dedicated my career to fostering positive cultures and empowering individuals to achieve their highest potential. As the Principal of Richlands High School and a former leader of multiple schools, I have successfully implemented strategies that enhance school performance, improve student engagement, and create thriving learning environments. My leadership has been recognized with honors such as Onslow County Schools Principal of the Year and Tech Savvy Administrator of the Year. Through my journey, I have seen firsthand how mindset, leadership, and teamwork can transform not only schools but also businesses and organizations.

As a Jon Gordon Certified Trainer, I have embraced and applied principles from Jon Gordon’s books to cultivate a culture of positivity and high performance. These principles have been instrumental in driving success at the schools I’ve led, and they now form the foundation of Clarkie 3 Coaching, LLC. Through keynotes, workshops, and coaching, I am passionate about helping schools, teams, and organizations harness the power of a positive mindset, develop strong leadership, and build cohesive, high-performing teams. At Clarkie 3 Coaching, we believe that Positivity Fuels Performance, and we are committed to making a lasting impact on individuals and organizations striving for excellence.

Kelly Clarke

As a dedicated educator with over 27 years of experience, I have spent my career fostering positive school cultures that inspire both students and staff to achieve their best. Currently serving as the proud Principal of Heritage Elementary School, I’ve had the opportunity to lead multiple schools and witness firsthand the transformative power of mindset, leadership, and teamwork in creating environments where people thrive.

I was honored to be named Onslow County Schools Principal of the Year, a recognition that reflects my deep commitment to student-centered leadership and positive culture building. My passion for developing high-energy, resilient learning communities led me to introduce the Energy Bus for Schools program—becoming the first to implement it in Onslow County.

Now, as a Jon Gordon Certified Trainer and co-founder of Clarkie 3 Coaching, I help schools, businesses, and organizations harness the power of positive leadership through dynamic coaching and workshops that build purpose-driven, connected teams.

Positivity fuels performance—and I’m here to help you drive it.
