Barbara K. Watterston, EdD, has extensive experience in education and has held a number of school and executive leadership positions across Australia within the education and not-for-profit community sectors. She specializes in facilitation and research focused on the design and delivery of professional learning programs to develop, enhance, and promote the work of the education profession—in particular school and system leadership to ensure learning for all.
Barbara’s Australian and international research, consultancy, coaching, and speaking engagements center on leadership development that emphasizes the impact of high-quality leadership on student learning. Her research report, Insights: Environmental Scan—Principal Preparation Programs, contributed to five major Australian recommendations for preparing future school leaders.
Barbara’s advocacy for women in leadership was fueled by the lack of representation of women in leadership roles. Together with the importance of enriching a more inclusive perspective of leadership, she saw this as missing out on the incredible potential of women to influence and positively impact reforms and outcomes. She also found that a significant component to enabling greater diversity meant women letting go of some of their own self-imposed barriers. Barbara’s doctoral thesis
