Time to Think 2 is the perfect follow on to the first book, exploring many of the issues that crop up in leadership and can stop our teams from functioning. Each aspect is unpicked and explored from different angles, providing a variety of practical solutions that can easily be adapted and trialled. Time to Think 2 really encourages you to look at yourself as a leader and consider the kind of team that you want to lead. Like the first book, it is broken down into manageable bitesize chunks that are easy to dip in and out of, providing plenty of opportunities for reflection along the way. It promotes being both responsible and daring, outlines strategies to achieve this, and explores how to strike the right balance. There is something for everyone in this book.
Leaders often describe themselves as time-poor; the Time to Think books help to solve this problem! Rachel has done the reading for you. She has taken the best leadership books, made the content relevant for school leaders and left you with the task of identifying what you and your team need and selecting the right tools to address that. Thank you, Rachel!
As with the first instalment, Time to Think 2 balances relevant leadership theory with realistic, practical strategies that can be implemented by school leaders. I really value books that give you 'lightbulb moments' where you can suddenly see the how/why behind scenarios; this book has them in abundance.
Whether you're a seasoned leader or aspiring to take on a leadership role, Time to Think 2 offers a practical guide filled with actionable strategies to help you navigate the complexities of team dynamics and lead with confidence. It's a must-read for anyone committed to unlocking the full potential of their team.
