  • E31: Why It Takes Time to Develop Professional Relationships
    Inspired by a comment on The Gratitude Attitude Podcast, I'm reflecting on why it takes time to develop professional relationships. I discuss how relationships, unlike gathering people for your network requires time and consistency to develop. Emotional safety, patience, and build trust through small, consistent actions. Practical strategies for leaders, such as active listening, acknowledging past experiences, and celebrating small wins, are shared to help school leaders create a supportive and productive environment. TIMESTAMPS00:19 Balancing Personal and Professional Life00:51 The Importance of Relationship Development02:34 Coaching and Its Impact04:26 Building Trust in Leadership06:56 Emotional Safety and Psychological Readiness09:36 Practical Strategies for Leaders10:53 Overcoming Impatience in Relationships13:34 Nurturing Relationships with Gratitude17:26 Final Thoughts and Program InformationThe Confident Career Leader ProgrammeThis is my signature coaching package for teachers who are high vibe, growth-focused and want to give it their all for their goal of securing senior leadership roles.
