"For most, the language of ego is a shell, it’s a protective reaction to the insecurity they feel."

Thank you to Amity, Shreya, Aoife, Florence and Lily for leading assemblies throughout the week on the topic of International Women's Day. They discussed the importance of the day for celebrating women as well as looking ahead to what still needs to be done. #IWD2024

Why leaders should only stay in post for 6-8 years, carving out time for "critical impact opportunities" and why losing hope means you should get out of leadership.
@LibsNich is this month's How I Lead interviewee - a fascinating chat!

We’ve added a line to every colleagues job description. “Try every day to carry out a random act of kindness for a customer, a colleague or a member of the public…even one who doesn’t even come in to our shops.” Being kind is the best way to do business.
