With an exciting new line-up of expert speakers and workshop hosts, we will seek to explore how school leaders can both challenge and change the narratives for themselves and their schools, as they seek to achieve the best possible outcomes for all.
As part of this exploration the conference will explore how School Leaders can, amongst other things…
– Take ownership of their leadership story
– Challenge and edit unhelpful internal scripts
– Write exciting new narratives for themselves & those they lead
– Harness the power of stories to inspire and motivate others
– Strengthen and build cohesive teams through the creation of a shared vision
