In this episode of Headship After Hours, we explore why confidence in school leadership wavers — and why trying to be everything to everybody fragments authority. Sustainable headship is not about copying another leadership style or meeting every expectation. It’s about alignment. We discuss authenticity in leadership, values clarity, confidence under pressure, and why you don’t need to satisfy everyone to lead well. If you are a UK headteacher navigating doubt, pressure, and conflicting expectations, this episode will help you return to clarity and identity. Leadership is not a costume. It’s alignment. 00:00 – Why Imposter Syndrome Appears in Headship 01:50 – The Subtle Signs of Leadership Self-Doubt 02:28 – Trying to Be Everything in Headship 03:15 – You Can’t Be Everything to Everybody 03:58 – Leadership Is Not a Costume 04:32 – Authenticity Builds Authority 05:12 – Why Fragmented Leadership Feels Uncertain 05:45 – Doubt vs Leadership Strength 06:03 – Values Clarity in Headship 06:42 – Why Pleasing Everyone Weakens Authority 06:59 – Questions to Rebuild Leadership Confidence 07:32 – Authentic Leadership vs Performance 07:54 – Confidence Is Clarity, Not Ego #Headship #ImposterSyndrome #SchoolLeadership
