Frankly, you need to grow as fast as your school.
In a rapidly changing school, one of the biggest risks is that the personal development of Principals doesn’t keep pace with the school’s needs. When this happens, the school can stagnate as it becomes limited by the leadership skills, emotional intelligence, and knowledge of those in charge.
Coaching is one of the best-known ways to maximise your development because it is tailored to your specific needs and helps you grow as fast as possible. In a supportive, non-judgmental environment you’ll get a regular dose of advice, reflection & insight to supercharge your personal learning journey without supercharging the discomfort.
In addition to supporting your growth, coaching is also fantastic for supporting your wellbeing. It’s lonely at the top, and when you’re so busy making sure everyone else is ok, it really helps to have someone keeping an eye on you too. Your coach can be a safe sounding board, someone to have a vent to when you need to, and will always be focussed on you, making sure you are a priority.
