Busy ≠ Successful Leadership

Have you ever felt that the busier you are as a school leader, the more valuable you must be? That if you slow down, delegate, or step back, you’ll somehow be seen as less important… or less worthy? This video is for school leaders and nursery leaders who feel caught in the relentless pressure to be indispensable. The unspoken belief that being the busiest person in the building is proof of success. The quiet fear that if you weren’t there, everything would fall apart and what that says about your worth. We explore the uncomfortable truth that busyness has become a badge of honour in education, and how that belief quietly drives burnout, bottlenecks, and exhaustion. Not because you don’t care but because you care so deeply. I reflect on my own experience as a deputy head and inclusion lead, where being constantly busy felt like validation. Where proving my worth meant doing more, holding more, and never stopping. And why that way of leading is not only unhealthy, but unsustainable. In this video, we reframe what success in leadership actually looks like. We talk about empowerment, trust, and resourcing your team so that leadership isn’t all about you and why stepping back doesn’t make you irrelevant, it makes your leadership stronger. This isn’t about doing nothing or caring less. It’s about creating space to think, to lead strategically, to connect with your team and to build a culture where people can flourish including you. If you’re exhausted, running at 100 miles an hour, or questioning whether being busy really equals being successful, this is your invitation to pause and reflect. You don’t have to prove your worth through burnout. Sustainable leadership starts with believing in others and in yourself. ✨ If this resonates, please share it with a leader who needs permission to slow down today. Follow me on: 1.
