In Episode 3 of the first season of From The Deputy's Desk, Nelson unpacks one of the most persistent challenges in school leadership: getting genuine staff buy-in for whole-school change. Using DISC Flow profiling, he maps out exactly what your Influence-style and Steadiness-style staff need from a change leader and why most change initiatives lose both groups before the rollout is even complete. This episode includes detailed communication strategies and word-for-word conversation scripts for both styles, a four-phase DISC change communication framework, the DISC Diagnostic applied to a whole-school teaching model rollout, One Powerful Question and an honest From the DP Desk reflection on a change initiative that fell short and what it taught him.
