Do you remember when a school leader’s job seemed straightforward?
It was, you know… to lead the school!
But somewhere over the years, something changed.
School leaders absorbed an inordinate number of ancillary responsibilities and now many find themselves wondering if they’re truly making a difference in what matters most.
Between administrative demands, compliance requirements, stakeholder management and crisis response, the core purpose of leadership can become obscured.
As Adam Voigt puts it simply: “That needs to stop”.
Meet Adam Voigt:
On June 18, we’re excited to welcome Adam Voigt for our EdChat webinar, ‘You Had One Job’.
Adam brings over 25 years of experience as an education leader, specialising in school culture and restorative practices.
As a former Principal in high-need areas, Adam has walked in the shoes of today’s educational leaders. His practical experience has been distilled into his acclaimed book ‘Restoring Teaching’ and his innovative teaching methodology ‘Restorative Practices P2.0’.
What makes Adam’s presentations unique is his ability to blend credibility with engaging storytelling, infusing his sessions with humour and hope
Previous attendees describe his approach as “practical, funny and very engaging”, noting they “learnt techniques they could use immediately”.
Watch Adam explain how school leadership doesn’t have to feel like ‘plate spinning at the circus’ and why focusing on your one true job – school culture – transforms everything.
His promise? ‘When we get that job right, everything gets better’.
Reimagining leadership through culture
In this high-energy presentation, Adam will challenge you to reimagine your leadership role through the lens of culture. He’ll show you how culture can truly become your ‘one job’ as you:
- Get clear on what school culture really is
- Understand how it underpins every school objective
- See how it promotes strong practice and improves wellbeing
- Discover why it’s the practical work you were born to do every day.
Rather than adding another responsibility to your plate, Adam’s approach offers a paradigm shift – a way to see your existing responsibilities through a more focused and purposeful lens.
What to expect
Adam’s presentations are known for being high-impact, engaging and exuding ‘a clear bias for change’.
The 60-minute session will include:
- Practical insights on leading school culture
- Strategies you can implement immediately
- A 10-minute Q&A to address your specific challenges.
