Dr Judith Norris is a senior lecturer in educational leadership studies. Her thesis 'From Metaphors to Mantras: Principals Making Sense of and Integrating Accountability Expectations' positions her research and practical expertise around the psychosocial processes of leaders working in performative cultures. She holds a Masters from the University of New South Wales, in Educational Administration and utilises her Diploma in Ontological Coaching in her work with leaders and aspirant leaders, notably with their reflective and reflexive practices.
The leader considers what they are “up against, tries a negotiating gambit, makes a declaration to determine what reaction’ they pull, or examines the factors to observe reactions (Weick, 1995, p. 463). The old adages of “testing the waters” or “dipping one’s toes in” might describe this strategy. Loosening the grasp occurs when the leader does not probe or no declarations are made.
