What are people saying?
“The Lead with Intention program provided me with a strong starting point as I stepped into the coordinator position for the first time this year. It became a safe and supportive network where I felt comfortable asking questions without fear of judgment. I didn’t need to pretend I knew everything, which was such a relief. What I found especially encouraging was learning that many others in similar roles faced the same challenges I did. The program not only equipped me with practical tools to problem-solve but also helped me uncover areas I hadn’t even realised I needed to think about.”
“It has been an amazing journey that has helped me to grow in getting to know and understand my purpose. What I believe. The importance of trust, collaboration, empowerment, connections and culture.”
“It has been incredibly helpful and insightful to who I wanted to be as a leader. It has helped reframe my thoughts of what a leader is. For me it was amazing having a framework to reflect back on and ideas of implementing in a school.”
- Various leaders in early education, feedback to Dr Amie Fabry.
