Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we talk to Shelly Way, an experienced school leader who has spent over three decades in education and is now using her experience and passion to support other leaders. As legislation around Psychosocial Hazards was introduced, many leaders felt overwhelmed and underprepared. Shelly was no exception but instead of shutting down, she stepped up. In this conversation, we unpack how Shelly turned a daunting compliance requirement into an opportunity for meaningful change. From developing practical tools, to empowering her staff, to creating freely available video resources for fellow principals. Shelly’s story is a masterclass in leadership under pressure. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the NSW Primary Principals’ Association, our learning partner in this podcast.
