Playing it safe as a leader & staying anonymous might seem like the right thing but in the words of Ron Carrucci ‘Trust, be trusted or else you will be on your own’ Trust is vital to professional &personal relationships #pdsl #leadership @Leaders_SoE @niamhickey @patriciamannixm

[Orla Maher @orlymaher]

‘Visibility, building relationships and communication’ are 3 areas raised by Bernadita Moreno for ensuring success as a new principal. How teachers perceive these areas can be very influential on the school culture. #pdsl #leadership @patriciamannixm

The power of coaching.. Leadership and enhancing the skills others already possess, go hand in hand 🤝#pdsl #leadership #coaching @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE

Ron Carucci "... when injustice goes unaddressed ... a sense of unfairness sets the stage for unethical behaviour." This can be seen both in classrooms and in staffrooms! @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE #pdsl #leadership

[Fiona Lavin @FionaLavin22]

This is especially for all the amazing mothers today who are also amazing leaders 💜 @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE #pdsl #leadership

"A strength-based approach is the best way to expand on untapped potential" Carla Garcia. Let's all focus on strengths rather than being focused on deficits. #pdsl #leaadership @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE

[Michelle Duignan @michelleduig20]

Found this quote after this week's session on conflict. All leaders have tough times be conflict or bad days in the office #pdsl #leadership @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE

As school leaders we need to improve how we engage with giving and receiving feedback. Feedback is not another word for criticism #PDSL #leadership @patriciamannixm @niamhickey @Leaders_SoE
