Feeling rubbish at my job

I've just cahired a meeting at school, as we were leaving a member of the team turned to another member (within my hearing) and said "we need a spokesperson - someone who actually gets things done" I've been the chair (senior matron) and worked hard for the team; I've dealt with all sorts of issues that no-one else wanted to deal with and organised training they've requested etc. I may not be the most assertive chair possible but I feel I've done my best for them all. I feel really saddened that I'm perceived as not being up to the job. Is it time for me to step down? Your thoughts would be appreciated

If you're not appreciated and don't get anything from it then I'd definitely sack it off. Let the person who made the comment take over..... and make them aware it's because of what they said.

Everyone has an opinion on someone else. Guess you need to get to the stage where you are reflective and if you think you are doing a good job then carry on and then other people's opinions won't matter so much. If we keep waiting for other people to validate us with their opinions we will never be confident as keep waiting for that next positive opinion.
Reflect and think could you do anything different next time if not carry on as you.
