Search for slightly-late Easter leadership meme.

Return perceptive observation instead, along with some penguins.

Mission failed successfully.

Ignore the marketing and you’ll find a lot of talking points we discussed this semester touched on in this article.@patriciamannixm @niamhickey @blathbreslin #pdsl #leadership

Don’t just know your principal as “The Boss”. Ask the questions you may never have asked before. @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE #pdsl #leadership

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

A bit of a lighter take on leadership as we enter the last week of term. #oneweektogo #pdsl #leadership @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @blathbreslin @Leaders_SoE

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

Asking ourselves how many we could tick off regarding our own schools is a valuable exercise we all could do. #pdsl #leadership @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @blathbreslin @Leaders_SoE

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

For the weekend that was in it. #pdsl #leadership @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @blathbreslin @Leaders_SoE

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

The last two weeks of a term can be a slog. A colourful summation of Glaser’s Conversational Intelligence might help brighten up the start of the last full week. #nearlythere #pdsl @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @blathbreslin @Leaders_SoE

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

Tame the lizard brain. It does not have to be fight or flight. Lead, and approach conflicts, with compassion. #pdsl @KwameNegotiates @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @blathbreslin @Leaders_SoE

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

“Make friends with your discomfort so that when discomfort comes to call, we can work with it.“ A lesson not just useful for conflict resolution, but for our work in general. #pdsl @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE @blathbreslin

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

I’ll have to Tweet about Klopp more often it seems. #LIVMUN

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

Klopp’s thoughts on culture. Tweeting about him worked against Newcastle, so here we go again… #pdsl @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE @blathbreslin

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

Anger is almost always a secondary emotion. #pdsl @patriciamannixm @niekieblom @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE @blathbreslin

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

In school environments that seem increasingly fast-paced, perhaps the best thing we all can do is just slow down? #pdsl @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE @blathbreslin

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

Sometimes, it’s just the little things. #pdsl @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @blathbreslin @Leaders_SoE

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

Pertinent words as we mark a year since the start of the conflict. Time recognised Zelensky as Person of the Year 2022 for his leadership at home and on the world stage. #pdsl @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @blathbreslin

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

Powerful words from Julian Treasure on how to listen, and an equally effective summary of his views on speaking. #pdsl @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @blathbreslin @Leaders_SoE

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

Last one for the day, continuing the theme. “Everything; each success, starts from the moment when you and the team say “Yes, we can do it.”.” #pdsl @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @blathbreslin @Leaders_SoE

Leadership case study: Jurgen Klopp (Liverpool)

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

Filled with optimism after the Merseyside derby before returning to the crushing reality following a loss to Newcastle later, here’s The Boss with his thoughts on leadership and the importance of relying on your team. #pdsl @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @blathbreslin

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

As Liverpool’s leader in defence, it’s reassuring to see Van Dijk display the self-reflection and honesty we look for in our practice. Their performances this season also show what an absence of decent leadership can look like… #pdsl @patriciamannixm @blathbreslin @niamhickey

[The Athletic | Football @TheAthleticFC]

Liverpool and Netherlands defender Virgil van Dijk has admitted he has had a poor start to the season and claimed he feels an extra weight of responsibility as a leader for both his club and country.

#LFC

[Seamus Heffernan @S_Hefferna17]

Final thought on leadership and listening for the evening. A highly enjoyable topic over the last week, and an undoubtedly worthwhile practice. @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE @blathbreslin #pdsl #leadership

[Leadership First @GiffordT]

To become an effective leader, you must sometimes close your mouth and truly listen to your team because it is the ultimate form of respect any leader can give everyone on their team.
