The Behaviour Leadership Guy

@tombennett71 I did an analysis of Alpha School. Their 99th percentile impact claims are extraordinary. Data for students below this, whole cohort outcomes & attrition rates: nonexistent. “If students aren’t highly self motivated, we’re going to really struggle” - the founder. Selectivity.

Counterpoint: the only kids who respond well to AI tutoring are high-ability, highly conscientious, highly motivated. That’s a very small group. Everyone else needs a human being.

this single mom is blowing up on tiktok for creating a "date deposit app" so she will only date men who pre deposit her "date preparation costs" ahead of time

@StevenBartlett Great to meet you in Bali. I’ve been embarrassing myself stupid, tearing down paper walls & getting giddy with imposter syndrome ever since. Huge thanks, The leader who transformed your school, unfortunately after you had left.

Most people think change comes from motivation… Today’s guest has helped over 50 million people overcome their limiting beliefs, and he believes it comes from understanding the forces shaping your decisions when no one is watching. Tony Robbins, welcome to The Diary Of A CEO. When I first started talking to Tony, what surprised me most wasn’t his success - it was where he came from. Before the businesses, before the influence, before the public image people recognise today, Tony grew up in a household full of violence and instability, and an abusive mother. And as the conversation began, I found myself wanting to understand how someone can come from that kind of starting point and still build a life with so much direction and steadiness. That curiosity shaped this conversation. Not how to be successful, but how people become who they are when their early circumstances don’t appear to set them up. Tony has always been driven by a desire to change how people feel in the moment, from making cookies at Easter just to see people light up, to spending decades working with people at every level, from individuals trying to get unstuck to leaders operating under intense pressure.

My Nigerian mother and my English father modelled hard work in a way that I never understood growing up. My dad worked a full time job late into the evening and when his work was done, he would go and join my mum at her job in a small, hot, fast-paced restaurant kitchen until the early hours of the morning. They came home when I was asleep and went to work when I was asleep. When my mum left the restaurant, she opened a corner shop called KJS and would work all day and all night. She would end up sleeping in the back room of the corner shop on a bag of rice because local kids would break in, steal things and vandalise the shop because she was pretty much the only black women in the area. My dad again, would finish his full time job, and go straight to my mum’s shop and help her until late into the night. The most remarkable part of this, isn’t just the fact that they worked 7-days a week to provide for their family. It was their attitude towards their work. They never ever described or viewed what they did as hard work. I never ever heard them complain even once about "working hard". They seemed to view work as the ultimate privilege, honour and opportunity. The older I’ve gotten, the more I’ve realised that they were my biggest professional inspirations and influence - not because they gave me profound advice like some parents do, but because they set a profound example without needing to say a word - one that has enabled me to pursue my own dreams with a level of focused gratitude that I wouldn't have had otherwise. "My parents were tasked with the job of survival and I with self-actualisation. What a luxury it is to search for purpose, meaning, and fulfilment." - Bo Ren

@gregbradyx Simple. Should not be driving.

I never back into a spot. Almost never. There’s people at my gym who do exactly this & need to take 4-5 runs at it. It is MUCH easier to back out of a spot, than it is to back in. Fight about it in the mentions. One question / one follow-up only.

I’ve got a better idea. Don’t do ‘Station Rotations’ & don’t ’go horizontal’. They waste learning time. They’re ‘fun’ for teachers & frustrating for students. They promote disengagement. They flaw students with SEND. Those who understand cognitive science don’t do them.

What do you feel could be an optimum number of GCSEs for a student to sit to ensure integrity & quality of education/qualification.

@tombennett71 Please define sensible. I feel this role will certainly need concrete performance parameters. 🤣

Seriously though, can someone sensible apply for this please?

@AskNationwide Yes you did. Who am I going g to speak to who will be able to transfer my money today & help me close all Nationwide accounts.

@Behaviour_Guy Hi there, we've just responded to your DM. Nathan

@AskNationwide I can’t believe how archaic your systems are. I am in Bali & have been repeatedly told that, because I don’t have a card reader, I need to go into my local branch to authorise a transfer from my account to @HMRCcustomers. I’m in Bali! DM asap to halt next steps.

How long does it take to remove student mobile phones use from schools? About 1 week.

How long does it take to create disruption-free learning environments where teachers can teach & children can learn? About 3 weeks.

AI will enhance the quality of brilliant teachers & high-performing leaders. Poor quality educators will be swiftly replaced by AI-driven alternatives. It has never been more important & more exciting to be a brilliant educator. #education #AI #edtech #schools #AIinEducation

AI will create the greatest shakeup to education quality ever experienced. There will be no hiding places for apathy, toxicity, lacklustre performance & ill-alignment. Great teachers & leaders will be the driving force for rapid future advancements in education. #Education #AI

@AskNationwide Your systems are archaic & your customer service team unfairly engulfed by the frustrations this causes. I’ve just been told that, in the absence of a card reader, I need to go to my local branch to transfer money. I am in Bali & need to transfer money today. DM me.
