One of the greatest blessings in my life has been to meet Dr. Alison Taysum. We met during the Educational Leaders Without Borders conference in Athens, Greece. Very quickly it was obvious that she was brilliant. Although she is humble, her experiences prove she is well versed and knowledgeable in the field of education. Since then, we have worked together and collaborated on Educational Leadership presentations and research papers. She is particularly supportive of new researchers and has well developed academic and administrative wisdom. Dr. Taysum remains committed to being a prolific scholar and is dedicated to international educational, democracy, policy improvements and revision in Pk-20, equity, diversity, access, and practical social justice. She has a unique drive, compassion, and natural ability to motivate and mentor others while setting the stage for deeper conversations in change and change management. Dr. Taysum’s caring heart and synergizing abilities to engage in creating meaningful partnerships, coach others when asked, and serve students is in large part the very reason they become educational leaders across the globe. It is for these reasons and many more that researchers appreciate Dr. Taysum and her scholarship globally.
