Leadership
What a fabulous State Conference season we've had over the last month as we explored this year's conference theme of Leadership.
Participants were encouraged to consider that leadership is not defined by title or role, but by relationship. As Walter C. Wright reminds us, ‘a relationship in which one person seeks to influence the thoughts, behaviours, beliefs or values of another person’. In schools, like so many other service sector organisations, we are all leaders – whatever our job. We rarely lead things, or particularities, but rather we enter into a vital relationship with people, who guide and shape various aspects of organisational culture and life.
We were reminded and inspired by the Opening Keynote from Danielle Strickland that God is in the people saving business, and that we belong to God. Participants were encouraged to practice three postures daily in their lives:
- Surrender
- Generosity
- Mission
Conference Strands
Thematically stranded, the 2022 State Conference explored the leadership of:
pedagogy - understanding and improving the interaction between practitioner and student and their relationship to the concrete learning space
the pastoral - the development of the whole child across their entire school experience
people and culture - how a school best enables and empowers its staff to connect, collaborate and flourish
place - the architecture and aesthetics of the built environment – from grounds and maintenance to design and project management
