As we approach the new school year and its uncertainty, I am reminded of the learning we shared at a previous IBSO Fall Conference Leading and Learning in an Age of Mindfulness. These images bring back a gentle reminder to focus on wellbeing andleading with compassion. IB Educational leaders in Ontario have their work cut out for them, but this group is up for the challenge. Give yourselves permission to be human, practice self-kindness and kindness to others and remember we are all in this together.
