E22: 'Backing Yourself' in The New Year
Description
In the first episode of the Growth in Educational Leadership podcast for 2025, I delve into detailed strategies for securing senior and middle leadership roles in education. You need to BACK YOURSELF and take control of what's within your control in your job search.
I share insights from my personal experiences, offer practical tips such as practicing positive self-talk, staying determined, engaging in personal development, and focusing on impact rather than experience.
Additionally, the episode highlights the importance of understanding one's own journey and emotional triggers to better prepare for leadership roles. I also emphasise the value of personal development through resources such as coach, counselling, NLP, sound therapy etc to achieve career goals in 2025.
