By modelling these 3 ways of working you will see a shift in your teams and also yourself. Workplace outcomes and wellbeing will thrive and engagement, enjoyment & purpose will be present in the interactions that matter.

1. Frame all work as a learning opportunity.
2. Demonstrate vulnerability
3. Adopt a curious rather than certain way of being.

While working in Adelaide I spent 2 great sessions exploring feedback and psychological safety. The work of Amy Edmondson is worth while looking into in this space, but here are 3 tips worth putting in place to support high levels of psychological safety within your teams.

Happy Monday!!
Wishing you all a smooth and productive week ahead. 🙂

Halfway through February, now is a good time to chat about your team or leadership development needs before the year gets away from us all!
I've got some exciting work coming up in the next period but would love to chat soon!

⚡️Rest & Performance⚡️

I’m here just checking in on how you’re planning to recharge those batteries weekend.
We know there is a huge link between the quality of your rest & your performance.. whether that’s work or family life.
So consider what can I do to ensure I can be at my best next week?

Throughly enjoyed the co-constructed understandings on high performing teams and cultures of trust with the PEAC team today. It’s been amazing to work with them for a number of years and take the level of understanding deeper each time.

I had an amazing day yesterday working the staff across Applecross PS & Shenton yesterday. Connecting as a team and developing insights for effectiveness.

I spent an amazing morning with the educators of Yarralinka Primary School here in Perth. Where we explored our personal Values and how those insights can support the highest level of collaboration and team effectiveness.

Many of the middle leaders I work with do not initially have a strong leadership identity, so it is critical to foster this and align it with a strong reflective process of understanding self, others and the goals of the organisation.

This week I kicked off a Middle Leadership Program with the Leadership Team at Gilmore College.
Middle Leaders are critical to success and have a crucial role to play in the support of student success through aligning, translating and supporting the implementation of practice to their staff.

Ready for a great morning working with Admin team at Gilmore College. Setting the intention for 2025 by exploring our personal values.

I am looking forward being back in rooms with real people after a month. Rich conversations to start the year off well and to make 2025 a successful and intentional year!

⏳Like many of you I don't go for hours and hours or days of goal setting. So, I have planned this quick 1 hr session to set your focus giving you the opportunity to be align your goals with intentional everyday actions.

Thanks Rachael.. I'm looking forward to the connections! 😀

SO, I have started another business with some amazing people. Like many of you we believe there is more to student success than ATAR and their academic record.. so we have developed some digital tools that identify, measure and grow Social Emotional Learning & Shared Responsibility.

WOW, so I have also made it over to Bluesky.. so far looks promising... like old twitter!
