The not so sunny banks of central Birmingham's canals saw us attend this year's Inspiring Leadership conference at the ICC. We were inspired by several speakers, not all of whom were from the world of education, and they provided us with much to think about! Some of the best quotes from the conference are below. A favourite is in the picture above - '100 things 1% better' from Humphrey Waters who supported the England Rugby team to World Cup success!
1. Look for the gap in the wave
2. Grown up restless leadership is not a matter of age but of attitude
3. The mountain isn't ready
4. Bureaucracy is terrified of leaving free time in your schedule
5. This conference is all about nourishing the spirit
6. People who have...an unerring ability to go straight to the periphery of a problem
7. Sometimes you need to solve 50 little problems to solve one big problem
8. The higher the stakes, the bigger the instinct to blame
9. In business we touch people's wallets, as teachers you touch their soul
10. Children should go to school with open minds and return home with shiny eyes
