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
