For this episode, Nina Jaiswal, a former superintendent with the Peel District School Board, consultant, coach and facilitator, joins Leadership Talks to share some of her experiences and insights gained during projects she has been involved in while delivering professional learning to educational leaders in international spaces. Working with a senior team at a district in Sweden on executive leadership skills, provided an opportunity for her to learn the strategies they use to elevate student wellness. This cross-pollination and sharing happens in a bi-lateral manner. Ontario school leaders can build capacity in managing relationships with staff who have come from other countries by recognising cultural differences and expectations.
Nina continues to build partnerships with Ontario school boards and works with international groups to support educational leaders from countries i.e. Korea, Peru and the UAE on their learning journeys. To meet the needs of groups accessing her expertise as a consultant, she draws on all the skills she developed during her career to support the next generation of administrators.
