Abstract: This paper reports three mathematics leaders' reflective accounts of leadership involving working with teachers in primary classrooms. A "nutshell" of each leader's interview is presented in sections: leading change, knowledge creation and relationship building. Similarities and differences in their leadership are described in terms of developing a shared purpose, building relationships, sharing knowledge and understanding change. Positive emotions engendered by leadership are acknowledged and the powerful potential of professional conversations is raised.
