In this episode of The Independent School Podcast, Juliet Corbett is joined by Guy Pascoe, Chief Executive of Independent Schools of New Zealand (ISNZ), to explore what school leaders can learn from sector leadership - where authority is earned through influence.
In this thoughtful and strategically focused conversation, they examine how leadership works when there is no hierarchy to rely on, and why trust, clarity and disciplined focus become essential.
Together they explore:
Why sector leadership depends on trust rather than control
The discipline of strategy in a resource-constrained environment
The importance of deep listening
Why long-term relational capital matters more than short-term wins
How influence strengthens when built slowly and consistently
This episode is for you if you’re a senior leader who wants to build influence without relying on hierarchy, think more strategically about focus and constraint, and strengthen relationships that create long-term alignment.
Thank you so much for listening to The Independent School Podcast. I would be grateful if you could spare a couple of minutes to send me some feedback here. This helps me make the podcast as helpful as possible to listeners. Thank you!
