People Intelligence

Working with People Intelligence throughout my career as a Headteacher has helped me to bring creativity into problem-solving, see challenges from new perspectives and find solutions I would never have considered alone. Most importantly, Maureen has given me the tools and confidence to lead with resilience and remain steady and compassionate through the inevitable pressures of Headship. Her support has been transformational both personally and professionally.

There is a high chance that I would not still be working in education if it wasn’t for Maureen’s expertise and support through a time of personal overwhelming challenge in a previous setting. I am constantly recommending Maureen and People Intelligence to colleagues as her input has been invaluable for me and my career.

Reflecting on my Headship to date I can honestly say that the personal development work that I have undertaken with Maureen has had the biggest single positive impact on me both personally and professionally.

Through the work I have undertaken with Maureen, I have learnt more about myself as a person and as a leader than in my entire (very lengthy) school career. It is this personal knowledge, together with the skills I have developed, that has enabled me to flourish in the good times, dig deep in the challenging times but, most importantly, treat myself with care and self compassion at all times.

I love my job but sometimes the myriad of tasks, strategies and people leave you working at a pace that is unsustainable and not strategic. Maureen and People Intelligence offer a wide range of support to ensure that headteachers can continue to love their roles and can lead with compassion, courage and focus. I can not recommend them highly enough. The courses and opportunities they offer give you the space you need to become the best leader you can be!
