THE TIMES ARE CHANGING (AGAIN)Â School leadership in these challenging times of uncertainty and change at speed demands difficult decisions, complex community engagement, selfless service and the personal energy to carry the school through.

To be most effective, leaders and their School Administration Managers need a mindset that is calm amidst the storm, resilient, clearly focussed and compassionate.Â

WHY JOIN THE PROGRAM? This program taught me how to put on my own oxygen mask first ... so I could better help others.

In these separate programs for School Principals, Deputies, and School Admin Managers, you will learn mind training techniques, neuroscience and practical strategies to cultivate a deeper level of: Resilience through challenging times Mental effectiveness during overwhelm Wise compassion in difficult situations Service without burnout Inspiring team leadership through change.

04 WHAT SCHOOL LEADERS SAY “Throughout the day Principals have many curve balls thrown at them ...

I know that through this year of many complexities I would have been out on stress leave if it wasn’t for this project. I recommend it to everyone."

“I am grateful for the skills and life this opportunity has given me. I no longer work - I educate, collaborate and lead. At home I am more present and supportive for my partner and children.”

"(The training) has had the greatest positive impact, more than any other PD I have completed. I am more focused and in control of my work and tasks and do not feel as pressured or inundated by the demands of my role. Every Principal should experience this program, given the nature of our job and the expectations thrust upon us.”
