Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I am delighted to welcome Matt Pitman, Head of School (Senior) at Catholic Regional College in Caroline Springs, who shares his profound insights on leading meaningful cultural change in educational systems that often default to standardisation.Matt shares his approach to leading cultural change in education systems that often default to standardisation, discussing his work reframing wellbeing as central to academic achievement and the resistance we encounter from traditional approaches. Key insights include his shift from directive leadership to deep listening and coaching, and why sustainable change happens through partnership, not power. When we invest in authentic connections, people move because they believe in the direction and understand their role in the journey.Connect with Well-Nest:Click HERE to book a leadership + wellbeing coaching discovery call with AimeeLinkedIn: Aimee PresnallWebsite: www.well-nest.com.auInstagram: well_nest_collective_coOther Podcast: Wonders of Wellbeing
