Principled
Welcome to Season Three of Principled, from MSB.
This season offers international school leaders a provocation to think differently about the future of education and their role in the creation of this future. It is an opportunity to continue thinking seriously and deeply about the legacy that school leaders leave behind through concerted action in the present.
To frame this provocation, we will be bringing together the latest research and thinking about futures-focused leadership, alongside insights from interviews with experts from across the international school sector and beyond.
Each episode we will explore a different domain, and in the following episode we will put the thinking through its paces with a panel of school leaders - some highly experienced, some new in role and some emerging.
Episodes will go live every other Monday.

S2Ep9: How To Truly Listen: Nurturing A 'Thinking Environment' with Candice Smith
Welcome to the Principled podcast.
In this episode, Gill Kelly and Naomi Ward of Making Stuff Better are joined by Candice Smith, meeting & workshop facilitator, coach, and founder of The Thinking Field, through which she helps leaders to “create cultures of collaboration, inclusion, belonging and innovation.”
They discuss the responsibility we have to acknowledging the influence of previous generations, the importance of intentionality in setting up organisations that help our bodies and minds to thrive, and the tension between building profit and building a culture of thinking.
What is a ‘thinking environment’ and how can we actively create one? What is the role of collaboration, deep listening, and connection in this mission? How much damage can interrupting someone really do?
