  • S2E12: How to Establish a Culture of Trust and Psychological Safety in Schools with Corey Tavella
    May 20 2024
    In this episode of the Well-Led Schools Podcast, we welcomed returning guest Corey Tavella, principal of Thomas More College in South Australia— a large co-ed school with almost 1,100 students that has grown over 30% since his time as principal. Corey recently completed his Master's degree, focusing on measuring effective school leadership using an autoethnographic method. In this method, he acted as both a researcher and used himself as evidence. As such, he’s had much time to reflect on his leadership approach from the time he first became deputy principal to now, with six years as principal under his belt. This episode's conversation centers on effective leadership approaches, with an emphasis on building and maintaining trust to cultivate a psychologically safe work environment. In this episode, we cover: The significance of knowing yourself, your values, and what you stand for and how that can guide everyday choices and decisionsThe differences between an authoritative and authoritarian leadership approachCorey’s honest reflections on who he was as a leader when he first started and how his approach has evolved since thenWhy Corey values presence as a leader and how he integrates it as a guiding principle in his schoolThe difficult challenge of establishing but also maintaining a high-performing executive team and school culture despite the turnover of leaders and staffWhat an environment of trust looks, sounds and feels like in a schoolCommon barriers to establishing and maintaining trust in schoolsThe importance of speaking up to the right people when you are unhappy with something at workWays to sustain trust as a collectiveHow principals can support new leaders and middle leaders to develop their knowledge and skills in effective leadership and trust-building About Corey: Corey Tavella is currently the Principal of Thomas More College in South Australia, a relatively large 7-12 school of almost 1100 students from 7-12 (co-ed). This is his sixth year as Principal, having been a Deputy Principal at two schools, one all-boys and one all-girls. Corey has recently completed his masters degree with his main research focussing on measuring effective school leadership using an autoethnographic method where he acted as both researcher and evidence, given his focus on was measuring the effectiveness of his first five years of Principalship. One of his key tenets of leadership is presence, which, he believes, lends itself well to staff well-being. By aiming to be present for his staff, he wants to ensure they all know they are heard, valued, cared for, and respected. Corey has been in education for 24 years, and these last six years are the first in which he has not taught students. Links and Resources: Thank you so much for listening.
