What does it truly mean to lead?
This year, The Resolution Centre has had the privilege of partnering with Victoria College Jersey to help their newly appointed Prefect Team answer exactly that question…Not through traditional leadership theory, but through something far more human: understanding conflict, building trust, and creating genuine connection.
Stepping away from conventional training approaches, the Prefects explored leadership through the lens of conflict resolution. They discovered that conflict isn't something to fear or avoid, it's a natural, powerful part of life that, when navigated well, becomes a catalyst for growth, belonging and stronger teams.
Together, the group dug into their own personal conflict styles, explored what truly matters to them as role models for the College, and put coach approach techniques for feedback and conflict resolution into practice. At the heart of it all was a shared commitment to building a Prefect Team grounded in trust and authenticity.
The programme concluded on a powerful note with the team presenting their vision for the year ahead to the school's senior leadership team, including their Headteacher, Gareth Hughes. As part of this they all committed to a signed document the ten Leadership qualities they jointly promise to be loyal to this year. A moment not just of accountability, but of pride.
