About

 Praxis – Philosophy in Action

I am Jordan Tinney, retired Superintendent in Surrey, BC, one of Canada’s largest school districts. I continue to celebrate and support education and, in particular leadership and building the capacity of the entire system. I feel that supporting the people who do the work on the ground is critical to success of all children. I have led in four different school districts both rural and urban and I have supported districts all across Canada.

This blog is part of my leadership portfolio. I have a Ph.D. in Curriculum, a Masters in Educational Leadership and I am an active and ICF accredited Executive Coach. I get great satisfaction from helping others regardless of the role they play in our systems. I also know that leadership at the executive level, whether in the public or private domain, has enormous overlaps in terms of challenges and the support required. I am fortunate to be asked to speak and facilitate at numerous events in a wide array of contexts and I always appreciate the chance to share in the growth and learning of individuals, teams, and districts.
