21. Murgatroyds 7 Rules for Leadership Survival Forgiveness is
easier to get than permission. You cannot cross a chasm in two
small leaps. Bold is good. Be bold often, people get used to it.
Stay within the rules but just! Never let a good crisis go to
waste. Use them as the basis for innovation and change. The future
is not a straight line from the past so bend the line often. Make
your expectations clear and then empower and engage and let the
team do the work. Think not distributed leadership, but renaissance
leadership everywhere students, teachers, administration. If in
doubt, trust your instincts the brain can often get in the way.
Less is more.
22. TOP TEN CHALLENGES
23. Before we Get to the Top 10 What can we STOP doing? What do
we need to significantly IMPROVE? What do we need to REDESIGN? What
do we need to START?

25. Your Top 10
26. Global Top 10 Work-Life Balance for Leaders in School
Systems. Sustaining meaningful engagement with teachers. Staying
strategically focused don't sweat the small stuff! Finding the
evidence base for decisions within the school and not being too
concerned with PISA, TIMMS or other standardized measures over
which teachers and schools have very little influence. What are the
indicators you need to show that you are making progress and what
predictive measures can you use? Building effective communities of
practice networks locally, nationally and globally. Be a hub and a
spoke.
27. Finding and keeping a mentor, coach and guide no one can be
a leader without help: asking for help when you need it is a sign
of strength. Finding time to read and reflect. Most leaders
subscribe to periodicals and buy books they don't read them. READ!
Building leadership throughout the school and empowering teachers
as leaders. Understanding your own leadership development needs.
Remembering to celebrate, have fun and enjoy this work life is too
short!
