Is your school community struggling with communication across multiple languages? 🏟️In international schools, diversity is a strength, but it also brings the challenge of language barriers. Teachers, parents, and students often find it hard to collaborate effectively when communication isn’t seamless. The GEM Report UNESCO emphasizes the importance of language inclusivity in fostering equitable education outcomes. This is where multilingual ERP software becomes a game-changer. By offering multi-language support, such systems ensure that: - Parents receive updates in their native language, fostering better engagement. - Teachers can document student progress in ways that are accessible to all stakeholders. - Students benefit from a cohesive environment that transcends linguistic boundaries. - Don’t let language be a barrier to success. Equip your school with the tools to create an inclusive and harmonious learning ecosystem. Explore the global impact of language inclusivity in education with the GEM Report UNESCO.

Dear fellow Toastmasters, Let's recap our last meeting where we explored the exciting theme of balloons🎈. Our members delivered two captivating speeches, and it's time to review and reflect on the key takeaways🤩. 🎤 Zhao shared the narrative of Moomin, a beloved Finnish cartoon character, and the tale of the Drifted Bottle. He compared a Moomin story to a similar Chinese narrative, highlighting cultural differences in seeking friendships. Based on the adventures of Moomin, Finnish and Western fairy tales emphasize exploration and bravery, while Chinese stories emphasize caution and avoiding risk, highlighting unique cultural values and storytelling traditions in each society. 🎤 Adriana presented a speech in which she explained the concept of an HPL (high-performance leadership) project. She also introduced her own HPL initiative, which aims to refine the high-performance self-leadership model for personal development, taking into consideration the unique aspects of each individual. Through her presentation, she provided compelling insights into her topic, leaving the audience motivated and inspired. 🏆 The "Winner "of the night: Best Table Topics: Amit Thank you Tribe Tampere for welcoming space to host our meetings!

The Power of Words

Can you speak more than one language? How about 8? Here is a really good TED talk on the secrets to learn lanuages: https://lnkd.in/g8fvPfZg What I find interesting about this, is how different people find a passion to learn. Once the passion is there, that motivation carries them each forward through different techniques. As a leader, how do you excite your team to learn? #leadership #learning
