Be More Toddler: A leadership education from our little learners: A Leadership Education From Our Little Learners

by Emma Turner

The narrative around leadership needs to change. After reading scores of leadership books in an attempt to find a voice which resonated, Emma Turner (a primary teacher of 22 years with over a decade of school leadership experience including being part of one of the first all female Co-Headships from 2009, and mum of three small children) realised that the bulk of leadership advice out there did not take into account trying to balance parenting three children as well as working in a leadership post. This book takes a practical, humorous and unique perspective on the leadership narrative by looking at leadership through the eyes of what we notice about toddlers. Packed with real examples of what works as well as reassurance that leadership is extremely do-able for many of us, this book aims to demystify some of the leadership behaviours; encourage us all to believe we can be leaders; and to, 'Be More Toddler'.

A great book which was very easy to read. Emma shares from her own experience and her own leadership journey. If you’re not sure whether or not you fit the leadership mould, this book will persuade you that you do.

A great read for any leader who balances work with home life, feeling guilty about everything!
