Rezensionen

"This absolutely fascinating book takes the lens of mindfulness and applies it to the various strands of professional behaviour and practice. Aurora Reid has drawn on research to underpin her arguments in a way that is light touch but also conveys confidence that we should all be taking care of ourselves, our colleagues, and our pupils: not in some wishy-washy, feel-good way, but in an intentional way that preserves and enhances energy, rather than depleting it. There are some excellent case studies, bringing this to life: we all need to hear from heads who don't work late or at weekends and who also lead stunningly successful schools. Highly recommended."

Mary Myatt, Education Writer and Curator of Myatt & Co

"Stimulating and thought provoking... a genuinely scholarly attempt to bring together very divergent views into something that doesn't fall apart when you shake it."

Ben Newmark, Deputy Head Teaccher

"Practical yet makes you reflect. A brilliantly helpful handbook for leaders and a timely reminder to slow down and take care of me, as this affects my ability to lead others."

Jane Manzone, Teacher @HeyMissSmith

"Aurora has a fresh, enlightening perspective and the book provides an insightful, original lens on some of the biggest challenges schools face."

Ed Vainker, CEO, Reach Foundation
