From Drain to Gain – Making Meetings Work
from The Principal's Perspective Hosted by The Principal's Perspective
Are your meetings driving progress - or just filling calendars? In this episode of The Principal’s Perspective, Dr Adrian Camm and Teagan Collins examine meetings not just as calendar events, but as powerful signals of school culture and leadership practice. They share the structure of executive meetings at Westbourne and reflect more broadly on meetings that don’t work and how leaders can redesign them with greater purpose. This fast-paced conversation also covers how to make one-on-one meetings more valuable, and the trade-offs leaders need to consider when creating time efficiencies. They explore: The risk of senior teams getting stuck in the wrong level of discussion. Why leaders need clarity about where decisions should be made. The tension between efficiency and making people feel seen, heard, and valued. How meeting habits across an organisation can either strengthen or weaken culture. It' a thoughtful and highly practical episode for school leaders wanting to improve how time gets spent. Want to learn more about our hosts?
