Leadership Lessons from Henry V Part One: Being a Leader

Part One: Being a Leader
I recently attended a superb training session on Inspirational Leadership from Ben at Contender Charlie. The messages on leadership were based on Shakespeare’s Henry V.
You can find handouts from the course here.

Over a series of posts I’m going to share some of my learning from the course.

Some messages for being a leader:

• Own the leadership role – don’t apologise for it. Every teacher or teaching assistant is a leader. 
• When you walk into a school you are effectively on stage – performing for pupils, staff and parents. Use your opportunity to shine.
• Always hold true to your sense of purpose. It’s why you do what you do. Protect it – do what you believe in.
• Control your body language.
