This is an important distinction to make when it comes to empathy as a leader #pdsl #leadership @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @FCathain @Leaders_SoE

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Leaders, empathy is the ability to put yourself in another person’s shoes.  But make sure you are assessing how they would feel in their shoes, not how you would feel in their shoes.

So true…easier said than done at times but a good one to keep in your back pocket 🙌 @patriciamannixm @FCathain @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE #pdsl #leadership

It is not that one heroic leader who leads a school to greatness, it’s his/her team and the synergy within #pdsl #leadership @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @FCathain @Leaders_SoE

I think this is just as true for adults as it is for children, especially when it comes to courageous conversations in the workplace. @patriciamannixm @Leaders_SoE @niamhickey @FCathain #pdsl #leadership

[Susan David, Ph.D. @SusanDavid_PhD]

A child who feels free to experience the full range of emotions without fear of punishment, or the need for self-censorship, learns key lessons:

1. Emotions pass
2. They are transient
3. There is nothing in mental experience that demands an action

Be calm, be real, be curious, be present, be decisive…@patriciamannixm @FCathain @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE #pdsl #leadership https://t.co/dxXRt6u5Lg

For the day that’s in it 🇮🇪✅☘️ @patriciamannixm @FCathain @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE #pdsl #leadership

I like the idea that conflict, when handled well, using courageous conversation and caring, empathetic feedback prevents incivility from entering the workplace @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @FCathain @Leaders_SoE #pdsl #leadership

Yoga + PDSL, I love when learnings align. Sutra 2.6 refers to this👇as one of the 5 causes of human suffering- “False identification is confusing the seer or Self with the nature of the instrument of perception”When are assumptions clouding your judgement? #pdsl

Fail - Learn - Grow… “Failure is another stepping stone to greatness” Oprah Winfrey. Learning from our mistakes and not letting them knock us down can only lead us to a brighter future @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @FCathain @Leaders_SoE #pdsl #leadership

[Gemma Corr @GemmaCorr]

Great podcast episode with Donal O Reilly @PDpDonal who speaks about how a leader can benefit from having a “critical friend” who will open the space for good professional dialogue @Leaders_SoE @patriciamannixm @niamhickey #pdsl #leadership https://t.co/zop2tIGc9j

Just watched the Fyre Festival documentary and it got me thinking about a leader’s responsibility towards those who trust him/her. Seems obvious, but transparency is key @patriciamannixm @FCathain @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE #pdsl #leadership #dontbelikebilly

Learning about workplace culture this week and this pops up on my feed- “create a culture where everyone matters” 🙌 @simonsinek 🙌@Leaders_SoE @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @FCathain #pdsl #leadership

[Simon Sinek @simonsinek]

Every one of us wants to feel noticed, affirmed, and needed. How do we accomplish this? It all starts with culture: https://t.co/SdvQwvZ8Ss

How we, as leaders, can inspire more buy-in from our staff…trust is a great foundation to build from. 🙌 @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @FCathain #pdsl #leadership

[Rich Diviney @RichDiviney]

We cannot “make” anyone trust us - all we can do is behave in a way that allows someone to make the decision to trust us. 🤝

Emotional intelligence: empathy and self awareness=effective leadership @patriciamannixm @FCathain @niamhickey #pdsl #leadership

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

If you don't see your staff as humans first, you will never treat them as humans. Human first, professional second.

[Gemma Corr @GemmaCorr]

@ODeeAmy @FCathain @patriciamannixm @niamhickey Totally agree.

[Gemma Corr @GemmaCorr]

How can each of us change the way we see things in order to lead better? It may not be an easy step but it’s one in the right direction. @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @FCathain @Leaders_SoE #pdsl #leadership @GabbyBernstein
