How do we build a great learning team here in Leeds?

We must:
1. Have a clear shared vision;
2. Have a 'can do' attitude;
3. Be proud, hopeful, positive and optimistic;
4. Nurture innovation, creativity and be constantly curious;
5. Be totally committed to our colleagues;
6. Recognise, celebrate and develop strengths;
7. Recognise, understand and support weaknesses;
8. Be resilient in the face of difficulties and setbacks.
9. Enjoy what we are doing and wherever possible have fun;
10. Be passionate, totally focused, determined, persistent and energetic.

How do you think we match up?

Quotes to inspire you

"If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut."
Albert Einstein

"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."
Albert Einstein

"The world's a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsed."
Sean O'Casey

"A moment's insight is sometimes worth a lifetime's experience."
Oliver Wendell Holmes

"Be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love and to work and to play and to look up at the stars."
Henry Van Dyke

"The secret of getting started is breaking your complex, overwhelming tasks into small manageable tasks, and then starting on the first one."
Mark Twain

"Those who remove mountains begin by carrying away small stones."
Chinese proverb

"There is nothing in life so difficult that it cannot be overcome. This faith can move mountains. It can change people. It can change the world."
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale

"Every now and again take a good look at something not made with hands - a mountain, a star, the turn of a stream. There will come to you wisdom and patience and solace and, above all, the assurance that you are not alone in the world."
Sidney Lovett

"Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don’t and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said that it’d be easy, they just promised it would be worth it."
Unknown

"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the
status-quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do."
