A Kaitiaki Culture Of Leadership
An approach to leadership that creates sought-after schools
Schools and Organisations Tabitha has work with include:
















Helping Leaders Become Connected Communicators.
The approach to culture that creates sought-after schools depends on the quality of the conversations because conversations create connection.
Leadership is practised through conversations. That is why you need to establish a Kaitiaki Culture of Leadership. An approach to Leadership that prioritises the conversational dimension of leadership and ignites people’s potential.
As you constantly striving for success, are you struggling with disengaged staff due to either a lack of leadership, clear communication or recognition?
Hi, I’m Tabitha and I make the conversational dimension of leadership easier.
With my experiential approach and adaptive style, I teach people how to connect, communicate and co-regulate effectively in the moments that matter. It is not enough to be self-aware, we need to understand our impact on others and on the world around us.
My proven approach gets results and creates a Kaitiaki culture of leadership that will:
Improve Communication
Energise Engagement
Increase Psycological Safety
Encourage Cooperation and Collaboration
Decrease HR Complaints
Lead To Better Outcomes For Students
Make Inspiration The New Influence
Create A Culture Of Communication That Catalyses Success

What People Say
What I am learning with Tabitha has changed the way I approach conversations with my peers, colleagues and even my family. The skills I am learning here have already had a massive impact on not only my confidence in approaching conversations but also the outcomes from these conversations. I am excited to finally be on a PD that has genuine meaning to my teaching and work life.”

Thank you for your leadership and enhancement of our professional practice through your coaching PLD today. It was a full day and while our heads are bursting, it was fantastic and has certainly started us on our school coaching journey.
Jennie Nairn - Associate Principal
Just wanted to touch base and thank you, sincerely, for your leadership of the team last Friday. I am really seeing each individual grow and they’re very open to learning and improving and I owe that to you. They love the PL they experience with you; they find it so practical, applicable, and meaningful.
Thank you so much for contributing to the development and growth of our team.
