If in doubt, appear to do something as it might convince someone else that you are doing your best.<br /><br />My wife tells me that I am out of step with the 'modern' management techniques that are now in use in education.

I have become resigned to the fact that whatever happens, happens.<br /><br />Years ago I would have protested at the way the whole thing is being dealt with ... but I now realise that 'management' will do what 'management' want to do, regardless.<br /><br />The only things that will annoy me is if they refer to themselves as 'leadership', as if it were synonymous with 'management'. To date, I have seen little or no ‘follow me’ but lots of ‘if at first you don’t succeed … you’re fired!’<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-1838697864900239572011-03-29T01:13:39.147+01:002011-03-29T01:13:39.147+01:00I wish you luck, Bob, either way.
