This episode is for far more than just the football fans among you. In it, Rachel Johnson tells Gareth Southgate’s story and leadership style. In his career, Southgate has had a few instances that haven’t gone according to plan. Overcoming disappointment and regret is a powerful thing to master for ourselves, and for the people we lead. There is a lot we can learn from his approach to failure, team dynamics and emotional support.

PiXL Pearls are short reflections on life and leadership, in schools. They are here to inspire, encourage, motivate, and challenge.

The PiXL network spans almost 3,000 schools across key stages 1-5. We collaborate, share best practice, and equip leaders throughout the educational system.

Series 2 and 3 are presented by Rachel Johnson, CEO of PiXL, and Series 1 was presented by Founder-Director Sir John Rowling.

They both draw on literature, life, and experience in leadership to explore different elements of what it is to be a good leader and how we can become even better leaders, both in and out of schools.
