I wonder how the more introverted people enjoy conferences and about their experience. I spoke with some during the conference breaks and we discussed having small break out sessions after each keynote to discuss & share their thoughts, opinions and experiences.

So lets join them up more effectively and this teacher leadership will have more impact than any policy, measure or gimmick. Teachers are not our best asset, in educational change they are iur most important one.

Lovely to see you get the recognition that you so richly deserve, and in the company of so many of the great educational thinkers of our time no less! For me, the compelling qualities shared by all of those you name (and yourself) are integrity and humility. More power to your elbow (and theirs). Thank you for YOUR generosity and openness.
