Super Mum!

The juggling act of aiming to achieve work-life balance is topical in today's technologically enhanced society. I question whether we actually achieve this on a consistent basis, particularly when you throw studying externally through distance education into the mix of a complex work-family balance.

Continual professional learning is necessary in the realm of education, and as Fullan (2004) states in an effort to Understand Change. TLs today are leaders in the everchanging dynamics of education particularly when technology impacts so significantly. Technology is a key component of today's TLs job description, one that continues us on a dynamic learning journey.

So, the juggling act of Supermum actually requires us to become proactive leaders and managers of change in our own lives as we too become Leaders in a Culture of Change (Fullan, 2004).
