Leadership PD

The STLP2018a team had an intensive five day leadership course, based at the University of Otago.  The focus was on transformative leadership whereby you lead, motivate and facilitate others to embark on science teaching, which is guided by you but owned by all.  

A major part of the PD was finding out your own leadership style and working with it to the best advantage: identifying and utilising your strengths; identifying areas which need work and practising ways to improve them.  To provide base line data, we asked people who work with us to complete an observers questionnaire, which we also completed ourselves, so we could compare our personal assessment with those of others.
