Sustaining Resilience for Leadership: Stories from Education
Teachers’ workload and wellbeing are hot topics, high on the government’s recruitment and retention agenda. The workload, wellbeing and resilience of school leaders is too often taken for granted.
Julia draws on her experience as a leadership coach, as well as her own leadership experience, to illustrate how unconscious habits of thinking and behaviour can hijack our best intentions as leaders. Practical exercises support those who may ask ‘what can I do if this applies to me?’ and Karen McMillan’s illustrations provide a memorable summary of key points.
‘This book will help leaders at all levels, with all degrees of experience, negotiate this difficult but important challenge’ – Jill Berry, Ambassador for Leadership Matters
