A positive approach to behaviour management is key to the success of creating a sense of belonging and positive relationships. Positive Relationships + Excellent Teaching = Successful Young People #CalmLeadership #RelationalPractice #Leadership #positivebehavioursupport

Adversity is a special kind of teacher. It’s the unfortunate twist in the leadership curriculum. The lesson you didn’t choose, but one that can teach you more than success ever could. It’s not just struggle. It’s learning. Stay grounded. Stay the course. #CalmLeadership #Leadership #Resilience #GrowthMindset #LeadershipLessons

Leadership can be all consuming, but mentally and emotionally one must find a way to separate the role and weight of responsibility from the person that you are. Don’t get me wrong… it’s not easy, but it is doable. #CalmLeadership #MindsetShift #highperformanceteacherpodcast

Really enjoyed appearing on the High Performance Teacher Podcast. The opportunity to talk about how important Calm Leadership is in the current educational climate is was a pleasure! #Leadership #CalmLeadership

Not everyone will like you. Some will talk negatively about you. And then we worry about what they’re saying. WHY? Leadership isn’t a popularity contest. Listen to what helps you grow. Ignore what only seeks to bring you down. Do you. Let them talk anyway. #CalmLeadership #DoYou #LeadershipMindset #AuthenticLeadership #Leadership

Do good. They’ll talk. Do bad. They’ll talk. Do nothing. They’ll STILL talk. So stop living for other people’s approval. Be yourself. Stay true to your values. Do what you believe is right. And let them talk anyway! 🗣️ #CalmLeadership #BeYourself #Mindset #Leadership #SelfBelief

Leadership doesn’t have to mean running faster, carrying more and constantly firefighting. There is another way. Stay grounded. Stay in control. Stay the course. Join the Calm Leadership movement. 📘 Calm Leadership by Patrick Cozier — out now. For leaders who want to lead with clarity, purpose and humanity — even when the pressure is on. #CalmLeadership #Leadership #SchoolLeadership #Headteacher #EducationLeadership #LeadershipDevelopment #OutNow

Thinking Out Loud - With Pride! 🥹 9 months ago I published my first (and maybe only) book, Calm Leadership - Staying, Grounded, Staying in Control, and Staying the Course. To this day I can hardly believe it is something that I have done. I never set out to write a book... it was not something that was on my radar... hell, even to this day I would never consider myself to be a writer. I hated English at school! Always the mathematician! But I did it, and I am proud. When I think about the journey that I have been on and how this came about I feel like I have learnt something really important about self development. 🪜 I have learnt to stop treating success as a ladder. There is no straight clearly laid out path to being successful. It is messy, random and unpredictable. 🏡 I now consider that I have a 'garden' of success. I plant my crops - whether that be writing, leadership talks, leadership development training, coaching and mentoring, creating video content, etc. Each one a crop planted - watered and nurtured... then we see what grows. If I am honest, I thought coaching and leadership talks would grow first and fastest - but it wasn't. It was writing... and actually, I am really pleased that this is the case. Now I get lovely messages from people... some known, but many more are complete strangers, telling me about how they have read my book and how much it has helped them. It is a strange, surreal, but totally amazing feeling! It makes me feel good to know that my stories and reflections are having an impact on other people 🙏 So if you are one of those people who have read my book and given me feedback - thank you SO much. 🗣️ If you have read the book and have not told me what you thought of it, then please add a comment below or DM me. I am excited (and a little scared) to know what your thoughts and feelings are! 📖 And if you haven't yet purchased and read my book - then what are you waiting for!? You can get it from my publisher Crown House Publishing or from Amazon and other reputable book stores. Enjoy your weekend everyone! 😊

This one is for Arsenal fans…. 🔴⚪️ Guys…. Let’s maintain perspective… every season there are teams who ‘win’ the transfer market and that’s all they win. Everyone likes a shiny new toy, but there is no guarantee that this will make all the difference. Isak and Wirttz are a great case in point last season. Let’s just turn the page now. It’s done… we have a fantastic team to support. Let’s get behind them! #AFC #Arsenal #deadlineday

10 DAYS OF CALM LEADERSHIP — DAY 10 Calm is contagious. Leadership travels. Anxiety travels. Frustration travels. Panic travels. But so does calm. When leaders stay grounded, people feel safer. When leaders provide clarity, confidence grows. When leaders maintain perspective, problems become more manageable. That's what these 10 days have been about. Calm Leadership isn't about avoiding difficult leadership. It's about how we lead when leadership gets difficult. Thank you for following the series. If you want to know more, I offer coaching & mentoring, leadership talks & workshops, Start Calm. Lead Strong., and my book Calm Leadership. Stay grounded. Stay in control. Stay the course. Lead calm. Lead strong. #10DaysOfCalmLeadership #CalmLeadership #Leadership #DevelopingLeadersThatLast

10 DAYS OF CALM LEADERSHIP — DAY 9 Leadership is emotional. Calm leaders still get angry, frustrated, disappointed and anxious. They're human. Calm Leadership isn't about feeling less. It's about recognising the difference between feeling an emotion and allowing that emotion to lead you. Feel deeply. Lead wisely. If you want to know more, I explore this in my book Calm Leadership, through coaching & mentoring, leadership talks & workshops, and my Start Calm. Lead Strong. programme. Tomorrow: Day 10 — Calm is contagious. #CalmLeadership #10DaysOfCalmLeadership #Leadership #EmotionalIntelligence

10 DAYS OF CALM LEADERSHIP — DAY 8 Your team borrows your emotions. ‼️Bring panic into the room and anxiety spreads. ‼️Bring frustration and tension spreads. 😀Bring calm and confidence can spread too. Leadership isn't about suppressing emotion. It's about recognising that how you show up affects how others show up. Before your next difficult meeting, ask: “What does this room need from me right now?” I explore this through coaching & mentoring, leadership talks & workshops, my Start Calm. Lead Strong. programme and my book Calm Leadership. Tomorrow: Leadership is emotional. Your leadership shouldn't be. #CalmLeadership #10DaysOfCalmLeadership #Leadership #EmotionalIntelligence

10 DAYS OF CALM LEADERSHIP — DAY 7 🏔️ Perspective changes everything. One of the greatest traps in leadership is allowing everything to feel important. The email. The complaint. The meeting. The latest problem. The thing someone needs right now. But urgent isn't always important. Sometimes leadership requires us to get above the noise and ask: What actually matters most? Not every problem is a crisis. Not every email needs an immediate response. Not everything deserves your energy. Calm leaders know the difference. If you want to know more, perspective is central to my Start Calm. Lead Strong. programme this September, as well as my coaching, leadership talks & workshops and my book Calm Leadership. Tomorrow: Your team borrows your emotions. #CalmLeadership #10DaysOfCalmLeadership #Leadership #Perspective

10 DAYS OF CALM LEADERSHIP — DAY 6 💡 Calm creates clarity. Clarity builds confidence. Confidence creates culture. A lighthouse doesn't stop the storm. It doesn't remove the rocks or calm the sea. It provides direction through them. That's leadership. We can't control everything happening around us. But we can influence what people experience from us. 🎯Our presence matters. 🎯Our language matters. 🎯Our consistency matters. If you want to know more, I explore these ideas through leadership talks & workshops, coaching & mentoring, my Start Calm. Lead Strong. programme this September, and my book Calm Leadership. Tomorrow: Perspective changes everything. #CalmLeadership #Leadership #10DaysOfCalmLeadership #LeadershipDevelopment

10 DAYS OF CALM LEADERSHIP — DAY 5 💎 Pressure doesn't create leaders. It reveals them. Leadership is hard. Difficult decisions. Difficult conversations. Criticism. Uncertainty. Responsibility. Sometimes leadership feels difficult simply because leadership IS difficult. Calm Leadership isn't about removing the pressure. It's about learning to lead well within it. That's also why I believe in coaching and mentoring: sometimes leaders don't need answers... they need space, challenge and perspective. I also offer leadership talks & workshops, my Start Calm. Lead Strong. programme begins this September, and these ideas sit at the heart of my book Calm Leadership. Tomorrow: Calm creates clarity. Clarity builds confidence. Confidence creates culture. #CalmLeadership #Leadership #10DaysOfCalmLeadership #LeadershipDevelopment

10 DAYS OF CALM LEADERSHIP — DAY 4 🏔️ Before you lead others… Lead yourself. We ask a lot of those we lead: 🎯Stay calm. 🎯Be resilient. 🎯Listen. 🎯Reflect. 🎯Take responsibility. 🎯Keep perspective. But leadership starts with asking the same of ourselves. Self-control isn't a personality trait. It's a leadership discipline. If you want to know more about Calm Leadership, I explore these ideas through my book Calm Leadership, coaching & mentoring, leadership talks & workshops, and my new Start Calm. Lead Strong. programme this September. Tomorrow: Pressure doesn't create leaders. It reveals them. #CalmLeadership #SelfLeadership #Leadership #10DaysOfCalmLeadership

A pleasure as always to guest on the Liam Davis show on Shoreditch Radio. Great chat about all matters education, Calm Leadership, and (of course) the mighty Arsenal!! 🙌🏾 open.spotify.com/episode/58l…

10 DAYS OF CALM LEADERSHIP — DAY 3 🧭 You don't need all the answers. You need clarity. Leadership can make us believe we're supposed to KNOW. But people don't always need certainty. They need to know: What matters? Where are we going? What do we stand for? What's the next step? A compass doesn't tell you everything you'll encounter. It gives you direction. That's leadership. If you want to know more about Calm Leadership, I offer leadership talks & workshops, coaching & mentoring, my new Start Calm. Lead Strong. September programme, and my book Calm Leadership. Tomorrow: Before you lead others... lead yourself. #CalmLeadership #Leadership #SchoolLeadership #10DaysOfCalmLeadership
