We equip educators with the necessary tools, skills, resources, training and network to improve teaching and learning practices.
Founded in 2005, TAISI envisions to build an educational culture that is holistic and quality driven, placing the integrated individual at the centre of our approach.
Dear School Leaders,
Throughout my tenure as Chairperson-Founder, I have made it a priority to strengthen our bonds with International, Indian International schools & International organizations across the world. I personally attach great importance to this gathering. It is a valuable opportunity to openly and frankly discuss issues that concern us all. And of course we are deepening our partnership in very practical ways throughout your regions and around the world.
I strongly believe that Heads Retreat 2021 of the TAISI Calendar has never been more relevant than it is today. No organization can solve today's global challenges. It takes all of us working together.
Our cooperation is a defining feature of today’s peace and security landscape. It lies at the heart of solutions. And this collaboration is growing even more important in this fast-changing world of rising threats.
I have set two goals for this retreat. First: to exchange views on pressing concerns affecting our work. And second: to strengthen our collaborative relationships.
Let me offer some initial thoughts to give some context.
Conflicts and disputes are inevitable in any organisation, schools not being an exception to this. Apart from it being time-consuming, conflicts have the ability to negatively impact a school’s overall morale, which is not conducive for a learning environment. How can we engage in effective negotiations, and more importantly how can we ensure that the differences are resolved in a positive way? In this year’s retreat we want to introduce mediation as an approach to resolving disputes. This will be part of a larger effort of TAISI to steer international schools towards mediation.
Warm regards
Anu Monga-Chairperson & Founder TAISI
