Really enjoying the coaching and mentoring module so far…trying to put knowledge gained so far into practice in school with coachees and am trying to implement the GROW model which is a brilliant tool @patriciamannixm @misskmaye Dr. Niamh Hickey UL_ELLA #pdsl

Great idea…teachers showing great care for pupils and classmates being taught to really listen to each other about their feelings @patriciamannixm Dr. Niamh Hickey @misskmaye UL_ELLA #pdsl #leadership #wellbeing

Excellent read…informative and thought provoking… “Without followership, leadership is nothing” @patriciamannixm Dr. Niamh Hickey Leadership Unwrapped #leadership #pdsl

Brilliant session with cohort last night where we looked at school culture and reflected on what is visible and invisible in our own schools using the iceberg concept. Honest and brave contributions from colleagues👏@patriciamannixm Dr. Niamh Hickey Leadership Unwrapped @misskmaye #pdsl

We've all heard that it can take 15 years to change school culture, and while it's very difficult to challenge negative culture, staying silent only supports the toxicity and allows it to continue @patriciamannixm Dr. Niamh Hickey UL_ELLA #pdsl

Since starting the #pdsl this is something I am realising more and more everyday… ‘two ears and one mouth’…something that needs to be continually worked on @patriciamannixm Dr. Niamh Hickey UL_ELLA

‘The Dark Side of School Culture’ by @patriciamannixm and Dr. Niamh Hickey is a harrowing yet essential read and should be distributed in every staff room in the country. Important for all to call out incivility and toxic behaviour and to lead by example…#pdsl UL_ELLA

I need to work on giving feedback to colleagues! This will definitely help me #aspiringleaders #PDSL Dr. Niamh Hickey UL_ELLA @patriciamannixm #leadership

Conflict is inevitable in schools and minor disagreements can easily escalate if people lose their composure. Always worth taking a step back and a moment to THINK before you speak. #pdsl @patriciamannixm Dr. Niamh Hickey @misskmaye UL_ELLA

Inspirational reading this week on the #pdsl. Something to reflect on and bear in mind always when in a #leadership role. “Taking a step back and leading with empathy,curiosity and psychological safety” Latonia Wilkins @patriciamannixm Dr. Niamh Hickey UL_ELLA

One of the most distinctive traits of great leaders is their ability to inspire and support their people to succeed and grow. Great leaders create a culture where their people are inspired to develop great ideas and where the dreamers are encouraged to dream big dreams.

Looking through notes and readings for assignments on Easter Holidays 🥹….chance to reflect on some of the brilliant content this year on mentoring and coaching module…every cloud etc ☁️ #pdsl @patriciamannixm Dr. Niamh Hickey UL_ELLA

Something that resonated with me during this fantastic module on coaching and mentoring #pdsl is to re align with your values, let them lead your practice daily, not just in pursuit of a title but by leading by example for it to become second nature. @patriciamannixm Dr. Niamh Hickey

The coaching and mentoring module from University Of Limerick has given a brilliant insight into how to be an effective leader. #pdsl @patriciamannixm Dr. Niamh Hickey UL_ELLA
