This keynote for a principal conference on inclusion in Glasgow really focussed on the importance of relational thinking- from compliance to competency- building; punishment to accountability & outcome to process #restorativepractice
Excellent keynote from ⁦⁦@mstowerp⁩ at the start of the City heads conference on inclusion. Grateful for voices like Michelle’s and entirely consistent with becoming a Nurturing City.
