Distinguished Emeritus Professor Viviane Robinson has had an incredibly influential career working to change the way educators around the world view school leadership and improving outcomes for school students across the globe.

She has consulted on leadership development and research to government agencies and organisations in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, England, Singapore, Chile, Canada and Australia, as well as in her native New Zealand.

She talks to Kathryn about her 42 year career at the University of Auckland, working with New Zealand's principals to improve student outcomes and on convincing policy makers that changing things isn't always the answer.
