Can we categorise our teaching friends and colleagues in leadership positions in the “power” or “leader” groups below? Then can you decide whether they make decisions for self promotion or for the betterment of the school?

[Michelle Hunt @michellehunt01]

The importance of the Emotional Intelligence that Daniel Goleman speaks of, seems a prerequisite when dealing with interpersonal conflict #pdsl #leadership

[Tommy G @TommyGPDSL]

For the busy week that was in it..for success mentoring, empathy and active listening is essential

Such a valid point by @Leaders_SoE about the importance of allowing others to grow professionally, and not simply inculturing them into "the way we do things here". It's finding a balance between nurturing and directing #pdsl @niamhickey @patriciamannixm

[Tommy G @TommyGPDSL]

A nice summary of a conflict resolution strategy that could be used in the school environment!

Sunday morning reading. Very interesting and very relevant #PDSL #Leadership @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE

“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

We've all heard that it can take 15 years to change school culture, and while it's very difficult to challenge negative culture, staying silent only supports the toxicity and allows it to continue @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE #pdsl

[Laura Quirke @lauraq6432]

Recently we spoke about resisting and knowing when and what to resist as a leadership strength and challenge. With the announcement of the primary curriculum framework, I hope there's scope to trust our professional intuition #pdsl @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE

Kari Boyle highlighted 5 most important benefits to workplace conflict as being:
1: Early Problem identification
2: Better Problem -Solving
3:Healthy Relationships, morale and commitment
4: Improved Productivity
5: Personal Growth and Insight

[Tommy G @TommyGPDSL]

How many of us aspiring school leaders can identify issues with in our schools or staff rooms, where if the above steps were taken could have improved staff moral, used conflict for personal growth INSTEAD of creating conflict that affects morale and relationships of the staff

[Aimee Moore @AimMoore92]

Reflecting on the #pdsl content this week, it is imperative that we have these courageous conversations to further our own personal growth and the growth of our friends and colleagues! 🙌 @niamhickey @patriciamannixm @Leaders_SoE

If the right person is appointed to Senior Management, could they lift school and staff moral? OR would the toxicity be flowing too deep to change the work place culture? 🤔
