Deeply saddened to wake in Europe this morning to news that Jacinda Ardern is stepping down as NZ PM. Jacinda has done an amazing job leading NZ & always brought humanity, empathy, & intelligence to the job. Much to be said, but for now - just thank you. nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/j…

Explicit teaching. Scaffolding a new skill. Show show show. Break down the task into skills. Master each step. Support to success. Support to independence. #thatsteaching

We don't learn much when things go right. It's when things go wrong that we learn the most.

Transparency doesn't mean sharing every detail. Transparency means providing the context for the decisions we make.

When asked, “How does it feels to marry a genius?” Marie Curie said: “Go ask my husband.” From the beginning of the 20th century, her example has enabled the role of women in science to be improved, but more generally in the world of work. #HappyWomensDay2022 #pint22

The truth of most truths is that they are perception and not, in fact...true.

“Empathy is not sympathy. Sympathy is a form of agreement. Empathy is not agreeing with someone; it is fully, deeply understanding that person, emotionally as well as intellectually.” – Stephen R. Covey #Leadership #Empathy #Understanding #QOTD

The future is bright! 💖
All great leaders are optimists. To inspire requires an undying belief that the future is bright.
A mentor is not someone who walks ahead of us and tells us how they did it. A mentor is someone who walks alongside us to guide us on what we can do.

The basic principles of constructive feedback: 1. Before you give it, ask if they want to receive it. 2. Be clear that you believe in their potential and care about their success. 3. Be as candid as possible in what you say, and as thoughtful as possible in how you say it.

Changing your mind doesn't mean you've abandoned your principles. It may mean you've learned something. It's better to contradict yourself and be accused of hypocrisy than to stick to your guns and sacrifice your integrity. The hallmark of integrity is honesty, not consistency.

How to have a disagreement that opens minds instead of closing them: How can you possibly believe that? → How did you arrive at that view? That's ridiculous! → I'm surprised to hear you say that. Tell me more You're wrong! → What would lead you to rethink that?
