Education, Leadership & The Value of Being Yourself with Ashleigh Martin (CGS Principal) | Episode 8
Description
What does it take to be an authentic leader? In this episode of Brighter Futures Youth Podcast, I sit down with Mr Ashleigh Martin, Principal of Caulfield Grammar School, to explore the power of values-based leadership, the importance of community, and the lessons he has learned from his own leadership journey.
Mr Martin shares how, in his early days as a principal, he struggled with the stereotypical expectations of leadership before realising that the best leaders stay true to themselves. He opens up about the role of compassion, open-mindedness, and connection in leading a school community and leaves us with a powerful reminder:
"Failure is a bruise, not a tattoo."
Join us as we discuss resilience, leadership, and the skills young people need to thrive in an ever-changing world.
