We measure a lot of the success of our work as leaders through the lens of impact. Recently, I wrote an article about this very concept which analysed how to understand which aspects of impact you can leverage the most in your work as a leader.
Elements such as climate, colleagues’ knowledge, systems and processes formed part of this, influenced by the work of Nick Hart.
Although a pervasive school leadership concept that has shaped policy and professional qualifications in recent years, I am feeling there is something missing about it. There is a deeper concept that impact interacts with, a stronger notion about what makes school leadership effective that I think is worth pursuing and understanding: influence.
