“Thanks Iain. I particularly liked your practical ideas such as Starr and the time management matrix. I think reminding us about triggers that cause stress, how to be more resilient and strategies to reset our attitudes are very valuable.”

About

So who is Iain Smith?  My mission is to help great school leaders stay in the job and accomplish their career goals, without burning out.

I empower busy Headteachers and senior school leaders by coaching them, helping them to manage their mindset, energy and time. This ensures they can have lasting, fulfilling careers and meaningful influence on their pupils and staff.

I also write and deliver INSETs for whole staff, focusing on the evergreen areas that underpin the success of great teachers; skill sets and ways of thinking that don’t change with every general election.
