31. The 6 types of support every leader needs and 4 things to look out for when choosing a coach

So many of us get caught up in the different types of support that we need.  Sometimes we think we only need financial support, or bookkeeping support, or tax accounting, or team support. And really, those are all peripheral. Those are all kinds of outside contextual things that every school leader needs. 

In today’s episode, I talk about the six types of support that you specifically need for yourself.  So not for your team, not for your financial team, not for your administrative team, but specifically for you. When seeking the kind of support I talk about in this episode, it is important to check whether your mentor has walked down the path you are currently walking on. Choose people that have done what it is that you're trying to do, because this significantly increases your chances of succeeding.

 

In a nutshell, I discuss:

• The 6 types of support that every school leader needs
• The difference between a mentor and a coach, and why you need both
• The 4 things to pay attention to when choosing a coach or mentor

...and so much more!
