Great job. Very insightful.
Really interesting, made me think and look at myself!
Had a similar impact on me when I first discussed my own traits. My challenge is trying to control them. Pleased the blog post was of interest
Food for thought!! I guess we’re all a bit of a mixture and the challenge is getting the balance right for the many and varied situations that get thrown our way.
Spot on Maria. It starts with knowing yourself well, controlling some of our traits when needed and understanding others (empathy). It’s how we actually influence others but it is a challenge.
Always find your posts interesting. You seem to have a similar philosophy to our school. I would be interested in visiting if that is possible as not far away.
Sean, You would be welcome and I’d be happy to set something up. Can you call the school and either chat then or leave me a contact number – 01253 396286. Mention the blog and it will nudge my memory. Thanks for the note.

Hello! As soon as I saw the ice-berg picture I knew you were talking about the Hay Group! I’ve also been lucky enough to experience one of their Leadership Programmes. I have come across your blog whilst looking for examples of how schools use SOLO taxonomy – so thank you for sharing the good practice in your school.
