#45 Building trust-based schools with Babette Lockefeer

Let's talk Transformation... - A podcast by Suzie Lewis - Mondays

Categories:

"These are authentic human beings and I don't need to teach them.. they already want to grow and learn.." Babette and I have an insightful discussion about building trust based schools and how this can serve the more interconnected world where we need more human-centred and regenerative practices from primary school to the boardroom. We discuss sociocratic decision making models and the parallel with what we are seeing in organisations and organisational culture. How can we design a model that is fit for all, but not a 'one size fits all' ? How can we step away from measuring solely the cognitive layer of intelligence and include development based learning ? We discuss accountability, definitions of success, societal systems and conscious inclusion as building blocks for a more equitable and developmental school system, and what this would change in the leadership we are currently seeing in organisations. Babette shares her vision for building trust based schools, pulling on her personal conviction and on her work with organisations and leaders across the globe.
