172: Coaching, Innovation and Empowerment with Claire Robinson, Head, Holme Grange School

Coaching, innovation, empowerment, strategy... this episode with guest Claire Robinson, Head of Holme Grange School, dives into many of the topics which school leaders ask me questions about.   As a highly experienced head, Claire shares with us her extensive insights into: 1. How to balance involving staff in strategy development, with the fact that sometimes strategic choices need to be confidential. 2. How senior leaders can empower their teams and utilise the benefits of networking outside their schools to build resilience in times of change. 3. Why strong professional development programmes, an openness to innovation and a coaching culture benefit everyone. 4. Why the development of people and the development of strategy go hand in hand.
