Leadership PD 2017
I have been very fortunate to go on 3 leadership courses this year. The first 2 were run by Interlead and were about developing middle managers.
Some interesting discussions and thoughts came out of the course, and re-visiting my notes has lead to more thoughts!
Here are my notes;
Following on from these 2 days I also had the privilege of learning with Tony Burkin who spent the day going through the Pipelines. Whilst Ben has talked about these before, and the Interlead course also mentioned them it made a lot of sense thinking about the different skills, time and values needed for each pipeline.

Andragogy
A key word from the leadership course was "Adragogy" which is the art and science of teaching adults (which is one of the key elements of a being a leader).

Mini-Mentors
A teaching and learning practice I saw on my travels was that of PINs (Passion, Interest, Needs) and so as part of my Kaizen Joe suggested that I give our version - Mini-Mentor,s a go.
My Kaizen smart goal for the end of the term was to trial this so we can learn from it when (and if) we decide to roll it out on a larger scale.
I still need to get voice from the Mentees, but here it is so far;

ERO appraisal Pie Chart
Following on from the leadership course where this appraisal pie chart was shown and talked about as a great (and now necessary) appraisal tool, I thought I would add it to my blog so I can find it easily and unpack it over the school holidays!
Leadership Course - inital thoughts
A great day. Has left me with more questions and wonderings than I had before and a rather extensive list of books I want to read and so have ordered!
My first wondering is a question based on our BPP’s - what is my Why for leadership? - Why do I want to be a leader? Why will others follow me / be inspired by me?
My initial thoughts stem from the Leadership Challenge book and go back to my 3Ps presentation last year - having a clear Purpose, being able to inspire People and bringing my Passion.
This isn’t enough though as there is no clear Why - I need to make sure I have a clear Purpose, that there is Clarity around this purpose, that others will feel a sense of Belonging, and I need to develop Credibility.
Credibility is something I ponder over as I’m not as experienced a teacher as all others at SPS so why would they follow me - this is why I need a really clear why - to give others a reason to believe in me.
Thinking around my Purpose for leadership and words that come to mind;
Collaboration, progress, innovation, challenge the status-quo, new ideas, fresh thinking.
