ISADTF DEIJB Leadership Portrait: 18 February
2026-02-18 14:00 - 15:00
14:00-15:00 (London time)
International School Anti-Discrimination Task Force (ISADTF)
We are honored to share the launch of the ISADTF DEIJB Leadership Portrait, a collective milestone shaped through deep listening, shared inquiry, and a strong commitment to equity, justice, inclusion, and belonging across international schools.
This work represents the thoughtful collaboration of the ISADTF community, school leaders, educators, and practitioners, who engaged in sustained dialogue, reflection, and co-creation. Through slow, intentional processes, the committee surfaced shared beliefs about leadership, examined the role of power and structural bias, and articulated the competencies and practices needed to lead schools and systems with courage, care, and accountability.
Grounded in research, lived experience, and professional standards, the Leadership Profile is designed to be practical and aspirational. It serves as a reflection and growth tool for boards and leaders, a shared language for leadership development, and a framework to support evidence-informed conversations about what equity-centered leadership looks like in action.
This launch marks an important moment, a starting point and not an endpoint. The Leadership Profile is intentionally designed as a living framework, one that will continue to evolve through use, feedback, and learning across diverse school contexts. It reflects our shared belief that building just, equitable, and inclusive schools is ongoing work that requires humility, continuous learning, and collective responsibility.
We extend our deepest gratitude to the members of the ISADTF committee whose generosity of time, thinking, and expertise made this work possible. Your commitment to slowing down, listening across difference, and designing with integrity has shaped a tool that honors both the complexity and the possibility of leadership in international education. Whether you have participated in one, many or all collaboration meetings, your voice matters!
Co-Facilitators: Douglas Beam, Joel Jr Llaban, Dale Taylor, Lauren White
Collaborators: Carly Buntin, Iain Fish, Virginia Hunt, Sientania McNeil, Maymouna Sakho, Juan Jacobs Sheblak, Manouchka Pierre, Jamie Williams
We invite the wider international school community to engage with this framework—not as a checklist, but as a guide for reflection, dialogue, growth, and action as we continue to work toward schools where every member of the community can learn, lead, and belong.
