ABSTRACT
Confidence goes a long way in bringing others on board, and however experienced you are it’s essential to have a clear understanding of your strengths. I have been in many staff meetings when teachers have delivered a message apologetically and with a “well, I’m not going to do it but I want you to do it” mentality. This will get you nowhere fast. It’s not about appearing like a ‘know it all’, which I’ve felt from others several times, and which may cause some to disappear and mumble to each other about what you’ve said. It’s more about establishing your role, being positive and being confident in your ideas so that your enquiry teaching spreads and sneaks up on people and becomes absorbed into learning and teaching. https://s3-euw1-ap-pe-df-pch-content-public-p.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/9780429487675/37cd4b35-cbd9-4612-a78e-6a4cf6332a91/content/fig2_1_B.tif"/>
