The International Schools Podcast
Education
Dr. Helen Kelly shares her latest book "School Leaders Matter." which explores why the school leaders’ role has become so demanding and what governments, schools and leaders themselves can do to support their wellbeing. We together unpack the different areas of the book, the relationship between stress, workload, community and well being and the significant changes in the role. To better understand the causes connected to Leader and Teacher burnout refer to our last podcast Episode #73 where Helen shares in depth the research and understandings of burnout in the workplace.
