Small Steps, Big Impact: Transitioning to a New Role

  • Summary

  • In this episode, Paul Ainsworth and Aimee delve into the complexities of transitioning from a large, well-established Multi-Academy Trust to a smaller, startup MAT. Paul opens up about the challenge of moving from a secondary setting where he was deeply connected, to a new environment where he had to quickly adapt to primary expertise and build trust from the ground up.

    Paul candidly shares his feelings of isolation and uncertainty in this unfamiliar role, including the struggle of second-guessing his advice and navigating a new set of expectations. He discusses his approach to overcoming these challenges by focusing on building personal relationships with Headteachers, understanding their unique contexts and implementing gradual improvements rather than sweeping changes.

    Join Aimee and Paul as they explore the power of small, incremental progress and the critical role of empathetic leadership. Tune in for practical insights on how to foster trust, support and collaboration in new and evolving educational settings.
