This week’s episode is all about something I know so many of you are grappling with right now:
How on earth do we actually create change in school?
Whether it’s wellbeing, behaviour, or something else entirely, leading change in a school can feel like trying to push a rock uphill… in the rain… with one hand tied behind your back!
So in this episode, I’m diving into one of the most powerful things I’ve learnt this year: the Law of Diffusion.
It’s a simple framework from the world of psychology and behaviour change that explains exactly why change is so hard, and what we can do about it.
We’ll break down:
The five key staff personas you’ll find in every school
Why most initiatives fail before they’ve begun
How to reach the tipping point where real change finally happens
Three practical ways to create ripple effects that last
This one’s especially for the wellbeing advocates, middle leaders, and heads who are trying to shift culture without burning out themselves in the process!
Stick around to the end for some actionable ways to take this into your school this term.
