A Vision That Fuels Me

Imagine a world where we could lead schools from the inside out, starting with the teachers and leaders who know their schools best. A world where professional development isn't done to you but is crafted with you, for your unique needs and challenges. That's the world I'm striving to create. My vision is audacious yet straightforward: to create a global network of empowered leaders who are transforming international education from the inside out.

A Mission That Guides Me

If you're an educational leader, you already know that the tools and insights you wield can either make or break the learning environment. My mission is to empower you with evidence-based strategies tailored to your unique challenges. I'm not just about handing you a toolkit; I'm about co-creating meaningful change that resonates with your specific context.

Promises I Live By

As we embark on this transformative journey together, you can expect a few non-negotiables:

• A Personalised Approach that respects your individuality and leverages your unique strengths and challenges.

• A commitment to Thoughtful Innovation, where I continually seek out and apply the latest research to ensure you're always a step ahead.

• A Community Building ethos that goes beyond mere networking to forge deep, collaborative relationships among international school leaders.

• A focus on Sustainable Impact, ensuring that the changes we implement are not fleeting but deeply ingrained and long-lasting.

• An unwavering commitment to Intercultural Sensitivity, ensuring that our work together respects and celebrates the rich tapestry of global perspectives.

Here are a few organisations I’ve supported this year.

My Offer: More Than Just Services

  • With ISLA, you're not just earning a certificate; you're becoming part of a vibrant, lifelong community of international school leaders. My flagship offering, a 30-hour, cohort-based Certificate in PD Leadership and Innovation, is set to officially launch in April 2024.

    ISLA is also rolling out a series of focused mini-courses designed to sharpen specific international school leadership skills. The Certificate in Teaching EAL for International Schools is a self-paced course and can find out more here.

  • Tune in to the Global Ed Leaders Podcast, where each week I offer you a blend of insightful interviews with renowned education leaders and reflective solo episodes. But this podcast is more than just a listening experience; it's a growing community of international school leaders like you.

    Soon, you'll be able to deepen your learning with downloadable PDF guides, engage in meaningful community discussions, and access mentorship opportunities to accelerate your leadership journey. Whether you're seeking fresh insights or a community that understands the complexities of international education, this podcast is your go-to resource. Listen here.

  • Whether you're an individual leader or part of a leadership team, my coaching packages are designed to be your strategic partners for transformation. And come March 2024, I'm upping the ante with Organisational Development Coaching, aimed at holistically uplifting your school's culture and performance. Jump on a free Leadership Potential Discovery Call to chat with me and find out more.

  • I offer a suite of services that are as specialised as they are diverse. Whether you're grappling with strategic planning or seeking impactful workshops and keynotes, I bring a tailored approach to each engagement. Recognising that each international school has its own unique set of challenges and opportunities, I also provide bespoke course design services. These are meticulously crafted to align with your school or school group’s specific needs, ensuring that the solutions are not just effective but also sustainable.

"I am grateful to have worked alongside Shane, who served as the Regional Head of Teaching Development during our time together. His professional expertise and suggestions have been instrumental in guiding my academic decisions, and he consistently challenged me to grow as a school leader. I was particularly impressed by his dedication to supporting the entire academic community, which was exemplified by his creation of the 'Becoming Bilingual' course. This initiative resulted in significant improvements to the bilingual teaching practices at our school, and it was a pleasure to witness the positive impact it had on our students and faculty."
