In this episode of Helping Organisations Thrive, I Andrew Green, CEO of Chichester College Group, who shares insights from his 26-year career in education leadership. Andrew discusses how his organisation serves 25,000 learners across seven colleges with a purpose-driven approach of "changing lives through learning." He reveals key leadership strategies including maintaining local college identities while leveraging shared resources, implementing employee engagement initiatives like wellness days and recognition programmes, and addressing the challenges of chronic underfunding in further education. Andrew emphasises the importance of holistic student support, building resilient leadership through self-care and boundaries, recruiting for attitude over skills, and perhaps most significantly, establishing "kindness as a superpower" as a core organisational value. He believes true leadership comes through experience, focusing on outputs rather than hours worked, and creating a people-centered culture where small acts of kindness can transform someone's day.
