Leadership

In this master class, led by renowned author, educator and facilitator, Gavin Grift, you learn how to let go of some of the mental barriers associated with leadership: the need to be right, the right to be heard over the opportunity to listen, the pressure to be inspiring and successful (however that is defined), to be all things to all people, to be constantly at your best because people are watching or to know more than those you lead, just to name a few.

You will be taken through a process of elevating your self-awareness to a point where you are not defined by your leadership identity, where you don’t measure your self-worth against your perceived impact of being a leader. You will learn to develop the leader in you that has clarity of mission with a desire to make a positive dent in the world.

Educators understand the pressure that comes from working with young people, their parents, and school colleagues, while simultaneously navigating their workplace environment. And that’s all while trying to live fulfilling personal lives.

Even though educators love their work, when significant difficulties arise – either on a global scale or a more personal level – it can be hard to focus, find clarity and work out a way to move forward. This could include a disruption at home, trouble with a colleague, a particularly difficult student, or a rate of professional change they feel they can’t keep up with. Our Relational Intelligence Program supports educators to deepen their relationship with both themselves and others.
