Description

Every school leader knows how tricky it can be to care deeply for your staff while still holding firm on expectations.

In this episode of The Flourish Movement Podcast, Adam and Bob chat with Mel, who brings years of HR experience in both education and corporate. She shares practical insights and real-life lessons to help you navigate the tricky balance between wellbeing and performance.

They explore how small, genuine actions can build trust, how to handle difficult conversations with empathy, how accountability can actually support wellbeing, and what small shifts in approach can make a big difference for your staff.

If you’re a school leader who’s ever wrestled with the tension between being supportive and setting boundaries, this episode offers guidance and a fresh perspective.
