Do you see yourself as a leader?

Colleagues,

Did you choose to win today? I’m just curious 😉

Another sector-agnostic episode of The Assistant Principal Podcast, so read and then listen.

Simone Lieschke is the Primary School Co-Principal at the American International School of Lusaka, Zambia. She is deeply committed to empathy-driven, student-centered leadership and to fostering a connected, caring school culture. She also makes a FANTASTIC podcast guest!

Simone is full of energy and optimism. And if you are American, you’ll probably also find her Australian accent charming 🤣

One of the really cool things we talked about was the transition into leadership and the need to see yourself differently before expecting others to see you differently. This is especially important when rising up to a role that is hierarchically above your colleagues.

It’s worth reflecting on this question: do you see yourself as a leader?


Thanks again to IXL for sponsoring today’s episode.

Cheers!
